“I must be honest, I was gutted when the original series was cancelled, ITV seem to have a nack at cancelling shows when theyu0026#39;re at their peak, or simply showing signs of developing into something good, The Halcyon and Home Fires to name a few. It was therefore hugely welcome news to learn that Omnifilm had decided to bring the show back from extinction, the challenge was always going to be whether or not they could capture the quality and feel of the original. For the most part the answer is yes, Julie Graham and Rachel Stirling survive from the original run, and provide enough presence to make it feel like Bletchley. Itu0026#39;s well produced, the stories are good (maybe not Madhouse so much,) and it deals with some very serious issues, notably sexism and racism. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s a good series, I think itu0026#39;s fair to say it doesnu0026#39;t quite have the quality of the original runs, but Iu0026#39;m glad to see it back, and I enjoyed it. I look forward to the next four episodes. 7/10”
