While there is some superb acting and music in this series, it's too implausible to imagine former construction boss Lew Burnett (Colin Blakely) and the softly spoken Alan Crowe (Michael Williams) taking on the Stasi, the CIA and parts of the British Army and getting the better of all three.
It's a very slow series at the start. If you're looking for action, it's limited and only really kicks in after Episode 3, where Burnett and Crowe end up in Switzerland.
The best characters in this are Quentin the villain - who really should be more efficient in getting rid of Burnett - Turtle and Razor Eddie, the latter played by Gareth Hunt.
