The Inheritance

Siblings Chloe, Sian and Daniel learn that their father has died, at the reading of the will, they are horrified to learn that their dad has left his estate to a wife named Susan, a wife the trio knew nothing of.

It's an interesting subject, families can be tight and loving, but throw money into the mix, and all hell literally can be let loose.

It's a bit of a slow burner, I struggled to get into the first episode, bud it gets better as it develops. As the bosh count rises, so does the intrigue. It's suspenseful, it's intriguing, it gives an insight into how fragile family unity can be.

It's one of Channel Five's better offerings, I'm enjoying their dramas more than many coming from the other networks.

The acting is rather good, they certainly went to town to assemble a very well known cast, we have the likes of Jemima Rooper, Robert James Collier, Gaynor Faye and Adil Ray, although you need to suspend your disbelief to believe that the trio are actual siblings.

How unusual to see a Channel five drama that's been filmed in The UK, and not Bulgaria or Romania etc.

7/10.
