I’m only on episode 2 but so annoyed that the PM doesn’t just resign. Seeing her husband and other hostages and being told to resign or they would be killed?? That’s a no-brainer. And she’s way too calm.

We need more shows like this, please. But agree with PP would be nice if they were longer.

This was great but so short. Only 5 episodes. Not much filler though, it was really enjoyable.

Really loved Julie Delpy in this. Hope this leads to more interesting roles for her!

More like Slow Horses, at least so far. Most like The Diplomat, actually.

+1 Wonderful to have two mid-life women as leads in complex roles about navigating power.

I am forcing myself not to binge, but very hard! I didn’t notice his height, will pay more attention.
