Warning: Spoilers
The previous reviewer 'marspeach' seemed to find the pacing of the production hard to swallow.

"A new character is introduced, given a backstory, and killed off in the same episode. Everybody's got all these issues but then at the end everything gets all wrapped up with no explanation."

I think marspeach would like all characters to 'last' for at least 2 episodes? What a seemingly arbitrary reason to dismiss an excellent production which handled a great deal of drama quite effortlessly in three one-hour episodes.

And as for the need to have 'everything wrapped up with no explanation'? Explanation of what???! If drama does not provide an explanation by sitting one on its knee and patting one on the head then should one's toys be thrown out of the pram? Actually I would disagree and say that the story lines are believable and compelling and do not end abruptly, and leave one wanting more. I would strongly advise anybody to watch this series.
