Crime Thriller Riviera Opens To Record Viewers

[naomi24]

I watched the first episode and this series looks very promising. Did anyone else see it?

I've seen the whole box set which is currently on Sky. It is good but I won't spoil it for you.

Thanks Naomi,

will take a look, how many episodes?

[Islay]

Yeah it didn't strike me. I find I really need hooking in the first episode for me to want to watch it further.

[naomi24]

trt, sorry, I don't know how many episodes there are - but it's looking good.

It's VERY cliched and a bit 1970s. Almost like they discovered a couple of second rate Persuaders episodes and spdecided to make a film out of it. Corrupt bankers / druggie son / lesbian daughter / dodgy art dealers. Still quite entertaining after a hard day tho.

[naomi24]

Zacs, Funny you should say that. When it started I thought it a bit 'Dynasty', probably due to the opulence of it all - but having watched another couple of episodes it isn't.

[Zacs-Master]

No it isn't N. Dynasty was of its time. This is a bit ( a lot?) of a throwback. If they'd set it in the 70s it might have been more plausible.

Oh, I don't know, Zacs. I'm enjoying it anyway.
