Narrative
Follow Rupert Campbell-Black and Tony Baddingham as they have a long-standing rivalry that is coming to a head. Coincidentally, Aidan Turner has previously filmed at Chavenage House (The Priory in Rivals). The same location was also used to film Trenwith House in the 2015 BBC TV adaptation of Poldark. A very easy and drinkable watch, thoroughly enjoyable. Great characters, storylines, drama and 80s music to sing along to. David Tennant once again plays a fantastic antagonist. Aidan Turner is amazing as always. The actors clearly had a blast portraying this and it comes through in the series. So many talented actors in one show. The series starts out comedic and becomes more dramatic as the episodes go on. The series has stayed true to the book and the 80s feel. The characters are enjoyable and easy to get invested in. I ended each episode wanting to watch more right up until the end. Let’s hope for a season 2!
