Just watched the entire series in one sitting. I got gripped from episode one. The sequence with the vest in the last episode was as tense as anything I've watched on TV.

Killing Eve is excellent - much better than The Bodyguard.

Yes mate, enjoyed it but think it was a bit long winded in parts, seemed to drag out, but in fairness I think most drama's do.

they over played the bomb defusing scene in the last episode, AND....... he would not have taken the cover off with a metal screwdriver.... at that stage there was no clue if there was a magnetic trip switch of some sort inside

Yes, finished it now 64. Very good, especially the bit where he woke up wearing something he didn't expect. The only thing for me though is that I'm not really a Keely Hawes fan, so I'm always thinking that someone else would have been better in that role. I don't find her very believable....unfortunately

I'm only watching to find out what's happened, not overly enjoying it, too long winded.

I think 'Strangers' has got better as the series has progressed

I think it's ran at one level, flat, but I am intrigued.

'The Bodyguard' is still my favourite of the three series covered on this topic, nearly as good as 'The Night Manager' imo !
