It stars Ross Kemp and I've watched 2 of the 4 episodes and I'm going to see it through to the end for two reasons, it really can't be as bad as it is and be on TV and so you don't have to smile

I see there is another drama next week called "Heat" starring Danny Dyer over 4 night's next week too.

It was about to start on my TV when I noticed Ross Kemp was the lead, quickly moved on, he's an actor and presenter that never is quite believable in whatever he is playing on film, same with Danny Dyer, however my all time favourite that I can never understand how he's managed to be employed for so long is Charlie from Casualty. I remember he was in the Long Good Friday with Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren, he never learned anything it seems from sharing a stage with those two!

I don't know if he still is or not but Charlie from Casualty was the BBC's highest paid actor smile

ETA: Derek Thomson, who plays Charlie, is paid between £350,001 and £399,999

I've watched most of episode 2 and I'm out. It's absolute dross, not necessarily Ross Kemp's fault. The dialogue is shocking, the acting worse and the plotline worse still. Life is too short.

I've invested two hours of my life I won't get back. So do I stick or twist? It is bad. Hmm.... I'm oot.

And why did the disabled lead actress cut all her hair off in the first episode? Not even mentioned, unless I was asleep. Weird.
