...it was possibly the worst piece of television I have ever seen in my life.
The acting was poor, the dialogue terrible and the plot absolutely preposterous.
I found it strangely compelling and can't wait to watch the next episode tonight.
I'm pathetic. |  |

It did have one decent major twist, which is one more than most similar dramas.
BBC4 had a "Happy Valley night" about 4 nights ago, which is available on catch-up. Now that really was a great drama series. |  |

Intriguing... I'll add it to the list.
It can't be worse than Lost in Space, which I'm currently lapping up like a brain dead goon. |  |

Whoops, downvote by mistake.
It’s rubbish. Going to watch the rest on I-Player. I do this often though with other dreadful dramas so I’m kind of used to it now. What is the plot exactly??. Went right over my head. |  |

"Plot"? Don't make me larf.
Atm looks like either standard fare ex-copper with a grudge and/or group of lefty/righty protesters out for publicity, and/or bunch of terrorists kind of thing, derivative of the film 'Speed'.
Oh, and there's a useless Transport Minister in it who's worried about being sent viral on social media - which does at least introduce one element of reality into it. | |

Soneone was watching it where I was last night. Plot and characters more far-fetched than our chances of reaching the Prem under Paul Lambert. |  |

So predictable, the train was never going to plough into the other train stuck across the track because there are four more episodes yet.. |  | | |

Gotta fill the early autumn prime-time innit.
I did think one good thing about it is its immediacy to recent corruption of antivirus software/hacking of infrastructure - wonder when it was written. | |

Totally unrealistic
Surely it would have been cancelled by the end of episode 1 and replaced with a bus to kings Lynn |  |

Is it worth watching Peaky Blinders? I got 3 episodes in and gave up.
Joe Cole is decent in Gangs of London to be fair. |  |

Peaky Blinders got better by the time they got to Mosley and the Fascists. About Series 5.
Anyone tried 'Prison Break' on Netflix? Seen first series so quite enjoying it. |  |

I watched about 10 mins of Peaky, couldn't stand it. It wasn't just the dark themes (have sat through worse) but the literal gloom it was filmed in - depressing & eye strain inducing! | |

I got hooked on 'Peaky Blinders' fairly quickly once I started watching (avoided it for years because I thought there would be graphic images of razor attacks, there aren't.) The Northern Irish barmaid may have had something to do with that though. |  |
