“To start off, I have not seen the original series, so my views are not influenced by the fact that this is a remake.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOn the whole, itu0026#39;s a very good series, very enjoyable, a good mix of drama, mystery and humour. For my money the first and fifth episode are the best of the series, two real highlights.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eClever stories, enough to get you using your little grey cells, Part one in particular is intriguing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI loved the acting, Ben Miller is marvellous, he really brings The Professor to life, heu0026#39;s quirky, heu0026#39;s smart, and heu0026#39;s committed to getting the truth. Frances de la Tour is phenomenal as Jasperu0026#39;s mother, sheu0026#39;s such a good actress, check out her scenes with Sophie in Part 5.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLetu0026#39;s hope a second series follows, we have a lot to learn, in particular what happened at the end of Episode six.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWell worth a watch, 8/10.”
