#1 main deranged character, #2 insane supposedly terminally ill friend with an invite together with a needy attention-seeking blond, 1 mismatched a bit curvy girlfriend and a third guy side character - a toyboy for the bored blondie but a jealousy trigger for #1 and #2 insane characters. i made myself watch it thanks to the positive reviews and a promised psychological thriller...that ended up more of a mental melodrama...and a partial documentary where main character speaks to the camera/audience. that was the first of a many let downs. i don't recommend: boring, overrated, chaotic, lacking a point let alone entertainment of any kind.

It's a nail biting drama.
Sleepin_Dragon29 November 2020
This is a terrific three part drama, it's twisted and full of secrets, and unexpected twists.
What starts off as a case of bitterness and rivalry soon turns into something altogether more sinister and twisted, friendly rivalry, hidden passions, all are on hand here.
Interesting the way the story is told, you get an account from Ian, he will guide you through events, from his point of view.
It gets more and more dramatic with every episode, concluding with a nail biting final part. The end of part two may be upsetting for some. You learn more about Ian as time goes on.
Two of the best, Shaun Evans and Rupert Penry Jones, Evans arguably steals it, but Penry Jones is just as good.
Loved it, 9/10.

Waste of a Weekend

We watched this mini series for two reasons. The first was Shaun Evans and this was a side of him we had never seen before, not necessarily a good thing. I'm glad this wasn't one of his typical roles. The second was that it was shot in Suffolk but there were no shots that were recognizable. It could have been shot in any country setting in England. Add them both together and the sum is a wasted weekend.
Very clever
