This is really hard to review.
First of all: The actors do a great job. Second of all: The English finally figured out that it takes more than a budget of 5.000 pounds to get a decent show up and running. Third: editing is kind of weird, but you get used to it. BUT finally: The writers do a very bad job. Lots of holes in the plot, but let's just ignore that for now, the real problem is the very lame and not really believable dialog.
To give you an example of the kind of thing I mean: There's a kid, about 12 years old. He comes up with these really lame and cheesy lines on the one hand, seems pretty grown up for his age, but on the other hand he paints pictures for/of people he likes (holding hands) and has bedtime stories read to him.
I don't want to go into detail, I just think it's such a waste of budget and it's just incredibly bad writing.
On the plus side:
Drawbacks:
That's it. Worth watching if you're just killing time, not worth watching if you want to focus on the plot.

On the plus side:
- you get to the almost everyones boobs :)
- it's entertaining, even though it's sometimes lame
- the main actress is really good looking for a British person :)
- good acting in general
Drawbacks:
- not believable, especially the way and the place it is set.
- annoying and cheesy dialog comes up every once in a while
- yet another conspiracy-theory-thing
That's it. Worth watching if you're just killing time, not worth watching if you want to focus on the plot.
