I managed an hour and five minutes, then spent the rest of the evening feeling like I'd wasted part of my life.
Man oh man, what an appalling crock of turd that was. Utterly devoid of suspense, engaging characters and realism.
The only way in which it held any fascination for me was as a sociological study of how the US thinks people of other nations view it ... namely, that they meekly allow themselves to be rounded up, handcuffed and 'debriefed' just because the Pentagon says so. Talk about living in cloud cuckoo land.
And what was that limp sub-plot about, with the wild-eyed serial killer and the wifey with the Miss Hoolie haircut? That was the point when it became obvious (if it had not been obvious already) that Hallmark, who made this unforgiveable sin against television, should stick to trashy romance and 'based on actual events' courtroom drama for daytime telly.
Needless to say I will not be tuning in for the next instalment. I can't believe Sky trailed this show so heavily!!!
