Good series, and this is mainly due to the fantastic performances of Smith, but certainly Socha. Opinions are, however, very divided. The Guardian considers it a masterpiece and gives it five out of five. At IMDb and RT, they are less positive.
I give it an eight, because I found the series quite exciting, with the necessary humor at times, despite the loads of misery.
A minor downside was the credibility, but I'll just accept that.
Not important, but Smith clearly did a Kidmann....
