Lasted till episode two

I saw the trailer and thought it looked good, a bank fraud is a great subject given the times. Laurence Fox and Toby Stephens are both from acting dynasties but I can't believe they read the script of this three hour long turkey. It went from bad to worse so consistently that I gave up in despair before the end of the second episode. It was just absolute rubbish, how a TV company can finance something so awful says it all. ITV shares are at an all time low and so are some of the awful rubbish they are turning out as drama. The actress who played the leading role was possibly the worst I have seen in a long time, but the script was so far fetched I doubt Meryl Streep would have looked much better.
