This series is a sleeper, as I'd never heard of it before catching a couple of episodes on tv, but it really packs a wallop with great acting and fantastic plots.

Superb acting, fantastic plot twists, fascinating historical context - just an all round enthralling series

Loved the plot and acting is terrific

If you enjoyed Downton Abbey for reasons other than the romantic plot lines (they just didn't pull me in), you will likely enjoy this show, too.

Then the show really, really picks up steam as the plot gets darker and darker in episodes 7,8, 9 and 10.

n’t think I could like this show anymore than I already do, it’s completely engrossing and a must-watch.
