Yes, clearly from the Jed Mercurio stable (it's made by his production company HTM, aka Hat Trick Mercurio). Episode 1 plays out in real, tense time, as bomb squad duo Vicky McClure and Adrian Lester check out booby traps on council estate, ends on the inevitable. Brierly has only written shorts before this - well, only published shorts.
'This isn't home grown terrorists,' Vicki's thinking, 'it's something more sophisticated...' Is it one of her own team, or is he a red herring? What's her brother got to do with it all...? We spotted the guilty party without too much trouble, and whilst it was quite gripping, we weren't knocked out by it.
Cast: Mark Stanley (boyfriend), Warren Browne, Manjinder Virk, Kerry Godliman (useful explosives expert), Ewan Mitchell (brother), Nadine Marshall, Pippa Haywood.
