happycarrot68 Bobby Moore was a great player, no Beckenbaeur or Maldini but being English and a World Cup winning captain he'll always be hailed as the greatest in the English media. The latest in biopics and documentaries of a story that has been done to death, a World Cup win 5 decades ago but this one focuses on Tina more than Bobby. Michelle Keegan plays Tina Moore like a second rate Sheridan Smith and the actor playing Bobby would send an insomniac to sleep with his dull persona. The football scenes are poorly done, not once are you convinced that any actor is genuinely watching their country watch a game of football or indeed see them win a World Cup. Found myself feeling a bit embarrassed for the actors and actresses in this is so poorly done. Watch the film 'Bobby' if you really feel the need to have more (excuse the pun) of 66 rammed down your throat but give this a miss.

Theo Robertson I caught this down at my mother's house otherwise I'd have ruined my life by missing it . Well perhaps "ruined my life" is a hyperbolic overstatement but it's a TV show that illustrates that you can become something of a television star without giving the merest hint that you're an actor I am of course referring to Lorne MacFadyen , an actor - and I mean that in its most generic sense - who I have never heard of and after watching TINA AND BOBBY no one will probably hear of again . There's two types of bad acting . The first is the OTT mincing thespian luvvie bad acting seen by the likes of Steven Berkoff . The second is the wooden , dull stilted type of acting MacFadyen is guilty of . Apparently Sir Bobby was a leader of men but I'm guessing if the Sir Bobby Moore seen here was in charge of a team they'd be hard pressed to find the half time pie and Bovril never mind win a world cup . I wasn't expecting Daniel Craig to be cast but I was hoping for something less wooden than a pool cue Thankfully the story revolves around Bobby's wife Tina and every fast paced storyline revolves around an underdeveloped quickly skipped over plot involving very little of interest . If nothing else it reminds me that not all double acts have a woman as the dumb blond and why I don't watch much television anymore

mike-16-697633 This is commercial TV and ITV in particular at its worst, it truly is a dreadful program, but I guess they will broadcast anything to keep their ad revenues flowing. This must me one of the worst scripts ever to have been written for TV, there is absolutely nothing of any note to grab your attention. The acting from everyone is equally appalling, especially from the so-called lead actors. I read that Mark Wright was raving about his wife Michelle Keegan's portrayal of Tina Moore and was quoted as saying "She's Special". Lol, what was he going to say! Someone should stop blowing smoke up these so-called celebs you know what and tell them the truth. Have some balls and tell Michelle Keegan that cosmetics, i.e. teeth, eyebrows, a face plastered with make-up and what some deem an attractive body, do not an actress make! Incidentally, who thought is was a good idea to make a girl with black eyebrows a blond. As for Lorne MacFadyen as Bobby Moore, just embarrassing. What a terrible performance. With more and more fantastic series being brought to us by IMDb, Netflix, Amazon, Sky Atlantic, etc, I am pretty sure we can look forward to a lot more dreadful series as this on ITV.

ianlouisiana ....in Bobby Moore's case,a formidable woman,his first wife Tina Dean who apparently wore the trousers - to use a phrase from the era - in their marriage.At least in this re-imagination of it. I must confess right away that I was a regular at Upton Park during Bobby's pomp and consider him to have been West Ham's greatest ever player and thus may be considered to be biased in his favour. Based on Tina's account,she appears to be the driving force and he a mere cipher as portrayed in this series. Was he really so meek?Was he so different from the authoritative figure he cut on the football pitch? Here is is presented as a man with serious need of a personality implant. If that was the case one wonders what Miss Dean saw in him in the first place. But perhaps she saw his potential and brought it out. After the first episode one is still waiting for "Bobby Moore" to appear. What we have had so far is an amiable lad anxious to offend nobody and a bit of a shrinking violet. Although he has declared that football is his life we don't see much evidence of it. Ron Greenwood - known to all at Upton Park as "The reverend Ron" is also subjugated by Mrs Moore who tells him off over his treatment of her husband as though all his years in the professional game have taught him nothing about man - management. I think the clue is in the title - surely a series about England's World Cup icon and the first true Celebrity Footballer should have been called "Bobby and Tina"? Instead,so far we have seen the usual 21st century take on a strong woman in a man's world,which is fine but I would hazard a guess that many viewers are scratching their heads and waiting for "Bobby Moore" to put a shift in.
