Reviews

estronbase I found the first few episodes quite dull and considered not watching the rest. Some reviews said it was slow to get going, but worth the wait, so I persevered. I found mysef looking forward to the last episode because it was the last one. After the end we are told we can find out what happens next when the series returns! I will not be watching.
eve-01021 I finished watching The Split tonight and found myself in turn laughing and crying and at all times absorbed. It has a cast of great characters and the plot is unpredictable, gripping and heartwarming. All the acting is superb, particularly that of Stephen Mangan, Nicola Walker and Barry Atsma. British dramas like this are much more natural and believable than equivalent US productions such as The Good Wife, which are poorly acted, wooden and, for me, unwatchable. For those of us out in the provinces this drama provides a glimpse of lives lived in what comes across as a beautiful capital city. Yes, there's glamour and gorgeousness that are out of reach for most of us - but the emotional and human concerns of he drama are to be found anywhere and everywhere. We can identify with the dliemmas and enjoy the fun and glitz too.
terriblerage We are now three episodes in and it has finally picked up... Nevermind the legal inaccuracies, it's a compelling story and a very relatable one if you've ever gone through a divorce, whether as a child or a spouse. Sure, it takes place in a very different world than most of us know, but it makes very little difference - we're all human. Nicola Walker is at the top of her game, and I'm particularly enjoying acerbic exchanges between Deborah Findlay and Annabel Scholey. The women have arrived!
rkokorinos Fabulous and talented cast featuring the city of London as a key performer. I loved this new Drama; full of anticipation coupled with intelligent and unpredictable dialogue. Eagerly waiting episode 2!
