Did anyone catch the first episode of this (Oct 25)? I just watched it and I had pretty high expectations for it... it's from the same writer (Jack Thorne) as Kiri, This is England, Skins, National Treasure and His Dark Materials... and it features Sarah Lancashire and Joanna Scanlan... ...and well, the first episode is pretty dreadful  felt more like an episode of Holby City, really. Incredibly wooden writing, no emotional hook, and just bizarre character choices that don't weave together to make an interesting story. It seems to have gotten good reviews but I can't think why other than by media establishments trying to connect it to Grenfell to score #woke points. Found Lancashire completely empty for once, too - she was brilliant in 'Kiri' but here she's just pallid and barely responsive to what's going on, and has a pretty awful accent too.
