September 1981. The lives of five friends converge in a flat together in London. But a distant threat means that life in the '80s might be all too precious.
Well written and acted with a lot of work put into the culture of the time. 1981 was my year so remember the cars, the music, TV, culture and literature of the time. The sex scenes were a bit off-putting being not being homosexual myself but I have seen similar series full of sex and innuendo to get word around so hope things calm down as the series progresses. Always good to see the hard-working Keeley Hawes giving the show some gravitas.
