This series got off to a high-adrenaline start with a chase for a suicide bomber in the first few minutes. After that, things slowed down quite a bit. But by the end of the first episode, the premise was fairly well laid out, and most of the key characters were sketched in. I might be inclined to consider this an average British thriller series were it not for the presence of two big guns - Kristin Scott Thomas and Gary Oldman. That alone would be enough for me to give the show a chance. I'm going to watch a few more episodes before making up my mind on this one - but I am giving it a chance.
