This is like an expensive cake no one wants to eat. The ingredients are top quality (big name actors, good cinematography, intriguing soundtrack), but the final result is disappointing. What starts off as a promising drama quickly descends into a series of unbelievable scenarios. It is the ultimate Swiss cheese of a show with huge plot holes. What sympathy you might have initially felt for Jenny, the main protagonist, is soon lost after the story line becomes increasingly ludicrous. I actually felt for Leanne Best - how frustrating might have been even for her to keep up with her character's motivations. So, wait a minute, I might have a deep trauma in my past, but no wait I'm an adrenaline junkie , no, wait I actually have PTSD after a train crash (which has nothing to do with my job as a senior paramedic). Oh, and I love my husband to bits, I feel so empowered but, no actually he is so controlling. Oh, and one more thing for the writers of this supposedly British drama: parents don't start a "college fund" for their kids in the UK.
The final episode defies any attempt at credibility.
