I was exciting to watch this TV Mini-Series, where the cast are awesome with Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie, and the rating is 8.3 , but unfortunately i end up with TV Mini-Series add nothing new in the table.
I saw this plot many times in the movies of the 90 , so i feel bored with everything in the storyline.
The acting is good, but i think they need more charming (babyface looking) actor to do this right as spy who loved by the girls.
The villain "Hugh Laurie" looks very stupid , they said in the first episode that he is very clever, but wow , he did mistake after mistake until you ask yourself "why they need to put spy on him?"

Agreed. Plus I really didnt care for Jonathan, always with this "Im a little orphan boy" look on his face. Hugh was excelent as allways, but the Roper character was do naive!
"why they need to put spy on him?"
thats good point!

Good acting, bad writing.

Same here. I only kept watching to episode 4 because I was home sick and had not much to do anyway.
The show never managed to build suspense, the acting (or is it the story?) is rather dull and I don't really care for the main character. Quite the letdown considering all the good things I had heard about the show beforehand
