Reviewed by Ryan

Certificate: 15

Starring: Matthew MacFadyen, Keeley Hawes, David Oyelowo

Genre: Spy TV Series

Plot: The series (this is series 1) follows a team of MI5 agents, through six different terror alerts. Can they keep the country, and their private lives, safe?

Favourite Bit: When Danny (Oyelowo) goes through all his security checks to see if his flatmate has stolen his vodka

Least Favourite Bit: The menus are horrendous - no tips, you're expected to know exactly what's what. Very poor.

Rating: 4 out of 5

Comments: Very good series, and a very good DVD release. Let down slightly by the menus.


Extras

Extras rating: 5 out of 5

Comments: Very good extras. Split over the three disks, so you're not overloaded with information all at once
