I apologise for my title, I couldn't think of anything world shattering, so moving on ...
The performances were superb, lines delivered sharply, dialog flowed naturally, the chemistry between the relevant characters came across as natural.
I don't want to write any spoilers so: E1, sharp and funny, I thought it was setting the tone for all that would follow.
E2, pace and humour fizzled out a little and I started to wonder if all the best bits were in E1.
E3, everything went dark, to say a number of scenes left me feeling very uncomfortable would be the understatement of the year, at one point I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep watching but was hooked by the amazing acting and script.
E4, twists, turns and alternate perspectives and a 10* rated ending.
I can only say that if you feel it's not worth sticking with in E2, keep going, your heading for a roller coaster of emotion.

This is the best series I've watched in a long time, ok, so the writers strike somehow changed "renew" into "cancel", seriously, someone please flip that switch back again ...
Brilliant story, acting, character development, visuals, pace, etc etc, cannot fault it in anyway.
A simple example would be without giving away any spoilers, there is one scene in one sub plot where you actually truly feel sorry for a really nasty bad guy, who's done pretty inhumane things and is about to do more of the same to the good guys but they put in this scene where he's on the phone with his daughter, that just completely throws you a curve ball of emotions towards him, not that he deserves it but its character development done to perfection.
Please, please, please, give us another series.

My expectation was for an average at best comedy which I thought I'd watch for the scenes of Edinburgh that I'd visited earlier this year.
I was drawn into a warming tale of friendship and love with an ending that left me in tears.
Great actresses (and a few actors) that made their characters feel "real", I have no doubt they all have solid careers ahead of them.
The pace was spot on, no scene too drawn out, humour was subtle in places and laugh out loud in others.
I have to admit I was maybe a bit distracted at times by the "walked there, been there, saw that" moments in Edinburgh but it is a stunning city and well worth visiting.
Beautiful film.
