The Split
Not the sort of thing I usually watch but I happened to catch the first episode and stuck with it because I quite like her from Spooks and him from HIGNFY. Watched another two on the train this week. The first two series completely passed me by, so now I am faced with the dilemma of having half-binge watched series three. Should I abandon ship and begin from the beginning? I kind of get the gist of what's going on from what I've seen so far tbh.

I'd say yes, but binge-watching the lot could get a little samey.moorfield wrote:Should I abandon ship and begin from the beginning?
It's the epitome of quality BBC drama though.

Re: The Split
Just binged the whole three series and enjoyed it very much.
OK you have to get used to a world where no family seems to live in a house worth less than a few million quid but it's not pretending to be "Cathy Come Home".

Re: The Split
I watched it because she (Nicola Walker) was in it
Not a gripping drama, but quite watchable

Re: The Split
Enjoyed it, high quality soap opera. Surprising how many of the characters in one episode left very revealing, emotionally charged messages on voicemails!

Re: The Split
Well it is about rich lawyers in 2022 London as opposed to a Sandford/Garnett/Loach polemic about a descent from overcrowding to homelessness in the 1960s amongst the working classes.redsturgeon wrote:Just binged the whole three series and enjoyed it very much.

Though the acting is even better in the latter with Carol White and Ray Brooks.
