Very high production values with excellent camera work and writing. The cast is perfect, each role, from lead to supporting is perfect, they reek of experience and dedication, in particular Tom Hardy and Pierce Brosnan are superb. Tom Hardy brings his full heavy physical acting style to this show, it suits the character, he just look menacing, you know he means business, so the viewer just falls into the story. Brosnan also has that technique of communicating through a glance or stare, at times looking totally psychopathic, the next moment suave. All together each episode gets devoured as you watch in fascination the in & outs and relationships within this violent crime gang. You know it's good when by Ep 4 of S1, with 6 more episodes to go, you are worrying that there may not be a second series.
