This is like a poor mans british attempt at '24'.The acting is not the best, the storylines are a bit daft and the dialogue very 'naff'.Its the kind of thing that if its on I'll watch but i wouldn't rush to get home to see it.Its got all the ingredients to work, but for some reason the magic just isnt there and the result is a 'nearly ran'.I only came into it during later series, and some poeple have said the early series are much better.But from what Ive seen I wouldn't really bother. Id watch 24 instead - far superior (particularly the earlier series)

Brilliant drama, shown all over the world, charting MI5's espionage services and the action and conspiracies behind it. Thrilling and on the edge of your seat stuff, which is incredible to watch.
