Didn't know these had been filmed. They're marvellous books, can't believe that TV would improve on them but, as I haven't got Sky Atlantic, I won't be able to tell for sure

Brilliant acting, amusing, a bit annoying, not sure where it was going. I was expecting him to OD. Worth watching.

Not sure about it. It has it's moments, is well written and superbly acted, but I wouldn't say I particularly enjoyed it. That said it's only five episodes so I'll probably stick with it ... a bit like reading a short novel that you know is good but don't particularly like.
Or watching rugby.

Balls. Forgot about this. One of my favourite literary figures.

I thought the trailers for it looked interesting, so was looking forward to it. I gave up after half an hour - absolutely bored. It jut seemed to be a rich guy who swore and took drugs - big deal. I hope the story developed, but as much as I saw I was disappointed.

I did, however, think it might have been a good role to act in, and I suspected the books that it came from would have been much better, but it didn't work for me.
