Amazingly excellent. Kudos to the creators for their creativity, commitment and courage in presenting a really big issue at a humanly engaging scale.
Note that in the 1979 incident alluded to in the show, the US came within 14 minutes of a catastrophic nuclear war due to a scenario like the one portrayed, and again in 1980 due to the failure of a 46 cent computer chip. Unfortunately, according to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, this sort of risk is greater today than ever. Let's hope that this programme inspires good diplomacy and political action.
