Can’t believe that I was ignorant of the incident took place in Salisbury in 2018, on which this mini series was based!
This mini series was a mildly and appropriately (in my opinion) dramatised depiction of the incident - the public crisis following the chilling Novichok poisoning of a former Russian double agent and his daughter, as well as civilians in Salisbury, allegedly instigated by the Russian secret service.
Good cast and production, obvious effort on staying factual, gripping suspenses at places (well, at least for someone like me who’s heard very little about the incident). And it just happened to be my favourite genre.
Feels a tad long and that was my main criticism. But the three hours could have been spent on worse things.
Hope the surviving victims are not suffering from any long term effects of the toxin…
