Review of One Day, One Room

Watched this episode some years ago and rewatched a couple of nights ago and it gets even better with age .The writing was so good I looked up the writer and found out it was David Shore the creator of the show Hugh Laurie was brilliant and he met his match with Winnick whose performance was mesmerising but it could only be so because the writing was so damn good.Slowly and carefully Laurie and Winnick dismantled each other's defences and it was beautiful to watch -it managed to bring intelligent debate about the purpose of life and death and at the same time be thoughtful ,entertaining and full of tension Watching it was like listening to a brilliant peace of music To those who gave it anything below 7 all I can do is repeat one of Houses favourite quips "Ignore them they are idiots"
