Not as strong as its predecessor, but well worth it. Quietly filmed and acted in the well-known hypothermic English way. They are all typical talk episodes, but the mood and atmosphere is always a bit menacing and indefinable.

Episode 5 stands out due to the (dominant) presence of Barry Foster as the new head of MI6.
