A great show from start to finish. Whilst it starts off in somewhat calm water, by the end it is very much deep in a full blown sea gale.
The show revolves around a fictional CIA spy station in Berlin. The station and various others around Europe have been hit by 'snowden' style classified leaks.
The main character, Daniel Miller, has been tasked by a top agency official to find and stop the agency mole. We learn in the first few episodes his background and ability as well as introducing the other main people.
The show has a feel of 24 and Spooks merged. It's a clock ticking exercise against terrorism and in house rivalries which eventually ally themselves for the greater good.
The plot is believable, the acting terrific from some well and other less so actors, and the filming locations are amazing. Who knew Berlin was that beautiful.
Do yourself a solid one and watch this show in one or two goes, i did and i was riveted to find out what next.
Fingers crossed for a sequel. This show is too good to not get commissioned for a second season, and equally is too good to fly under the radar on 'Epix' - it needs a more mainstream release.
score 10/10
