Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFeatures some real-life footage of events that occurred in Salisbury at the time, but not all city scenes were filmed in Salisbury
- Crazy creditsIn the closing credits, the names of cast and crew (but not the corresponding character names or job titles) were all shown in inverse video: black text on rectangular white backgrounds.
- Alternate versionsUpon its initial airing on BBC One, the series was presented in three hour-long episodes. In every other territory, it was re-edited into four 45 minute-long episodes. Thus the 1st episode of the four part version covers events of the 1st episode of the BBC version, the 2nd covers the rest of the 1st BBC with some of the 2nd, the 3rd the rest of the 2nd BBC with some of the 3rd and the 4th the rest of the 3rd BBC.
Featured review
I just watched all of this and was much impressed.
It could have been done differently,it could have been a Hollywood movie or it could be less fact based but I think the approach taken was the correct one.
The far left Russian apologists and the anti BBC Daily Mail readers seem to have formed a sort of Nazi-Soviet pact to slag off this production.
I will give no plot spoilers but having followed the real events in the news when it happened it seems like a fair account of what happened.
This is not a glamorous production.
The famous tourist attractions of Salisbury are not featured and Anne-Marie Duff should be praised for looking like a real women and not a model in this.
