Title: nearly gets there
Review: I could only stand just over an hour of this series. More a love than an espionage story, it attempts to emulate the intricate world of disinformation but misses out. The plot is confused but my main gripe is the constant music in the background which changes with every scene - and they change often. To begin with I thought the constant 'music' (reminiscent of what might come across in an elevator) would go away as the introduction developed into the plot, which I could not follow as the background noises were so distracting. I reckoniIf you want to have a deep spy plot at least give the viewer the chance to follow it!So this is a confused product: it wants to appeal to the average viewer who does not want to think too much about what is going on, and the viewer who wants something more. I would guess the end product appeals to neither. They should go back to 'Tinker, tailor, soldier, spy' to see how it is done.Such a pity as I was looking forward to this one.
