thought this looked quite promising, provided that it doesnt start to tie itself in knots, which is what spoils a lot of 'thrillers' these days.....

Not caught up with it yet, but the cast list alone makes it certainly worth a look!

It's some years since I read John Le Carre's book, but if the production remains true to the original it'll be worth persevering with it. A strong cast and the first episode was riveting, so fingers crossed! Happy. Use left and right arrows to navigate.

Yes, we caught up with the first episode last night, and found it very enjoyable, rattled along, excellent acting, and not so complicated that you gave up on it. Looking forward to next week's episode. Thanks for the reminder about this BB.

Have now watched first episode and thought it good, not totally hooked yet. We'll watch episode two and see what develops

Second episode kept up to the high standard of the first. Think this'll be worth sticking with! Happy. Use left and right arrows to navigate.

there's a lot of to-ing & fro-ing ..... 6 months earlier etc etc Undecided I'm keeping up though

....yes, this seems to be a modern trend....show you what happens then try to explain why....Undecided

you cant imagine anyone wriing a novel with the time slots jumbled up.....however, try Girl on a Train for this sort of jumbled mess.....

still, NM ripped along at a great pace, i think its one of the best around..

Just watched the second episode on video, and was surprised to see the filming set around Hartland. Interesting continuity, one moment he's riding his bike down the hill to Hartland Quay, the next he's arriving at the cottage (often used in period dramas) down the track from Hartland Abbey.

Then he's having a shower under the waterfall at Spekes.

And finally, and most surprising, he goes into O'Donnells shop, which is right next door to the house ( 40 Fore Street ) where I lived as a child. O'Donnells used to be a famous local ice cream maker, had a stall over at Clovelly as well as in their shop.

Small world and all that.
