I really enjoyed this show, for once the secret service isn't depicted as full of sexy genius super heroes, they are all flawed human beings that make mistakes and then get on with it. I like the female lead, Beatrice, but the Danish one was so annoying I wanted to punch her. Some viewers were put off by the fact the main character was female but frankly, it added to the relationship between her and her Scottish contact who was clearly infatuated with her. Beatrice was strong but she screwed up, so did all the others. I loved Spooks, and I loved Stephen Dillane in GoT so I was interested in seeing him in another role after Stannis. I hope there's a Season 2, I'll be watching!
