When I Gave Up

I was looking forward to this but the current 6.5 score is way too high.

There were too many stupid things happening and it really stretches believability.

How does someone walk into a club frequented by high Government Ministers and poison a drink and never gets challenged once? Then just walks out. No CCTV in the club and apparently none in the street either. Van hits a bicycle and therefore must be connected, how did they figure that? Again no CCTV? In London? The highest user of street CCTV in the world? It was even on the screen behind the cop when she called. Atrocious writing.

Why risk sending books to C in hospital when she already knew his number? This after saying she doesn't make mistakes, appalling.

A vapid wife, over enthusiastic pre-teen son and moody teenage daughter, how surprising. He has a highly classified and secretive job and the dumb wife runs to a friend to complain that he seems distant, stopped at a shop at 10pm to pick up a present and suspects it may have been a drop. Said friend then slips a recorder to her to record their conversations.... I turned it off.

A 3 is generous, I'm on holiday. There was no character I liked and it moved too fast to let me get to know who was who and why this guy was a 2IC when he just looked dumbfounded all the time.
