I watched this as it had Jo Joyner in, a very capable actress and seeing her something, which supposedly had more depth made it worth giving it a try but oh boy, it was a mess!
Peter O'Brien was in it briefly, not moving on in his acting ability from his soap days and playing the new, rich husband of Jo Joyner, his former employee and much younger wife. She had a teenage daughter, who although clever, was naive in the extreme, her British deadbeat father was living nearby, carrying anger issues. The neighbour creeped me out from the beginning, whether through the dodgy script he had to endure or just poor acting, I'm not sure.
The stepson and his mother, the bitter ex wife were poorly acted caricatures in the extreme, the stepson's boyfriend, providing possibly the only likeable character there.
The baddie was obvious from their first appearance and it continued to go downhill from their. Sadly this seems to be one of many really dreadful offerings from Channel Five, who again wasted a real talent ((Jo Joyner) in an absolute shambles of a series.
