It's obviously a bit early to tell after one episode, but I reckon that this series could be a beauty.
There wasn't a moment when the pace flagged or you felt you were in a scene that wasn't propelling the narrative forward. Each scene added to the exposition and the atmosphere, while managing to be entertaining and not too contrived.
The script clearly has class and wit and the casting and acting are top notch.
In the end, you've just got to love a show that has you crying and laughing at the same time when Professor Murray appeals to the court despairingly "I'm not a murderer! I'm an economist!"
