Quite superb! Well done for bringing this novel to the small screen. It knocks socks of the (later) film version.
Never seen what anyone sees in Dennis Waterman (as a sex symbol, that is - he's a great actor) but all these women lust over him in this show. Mary Fisher is suitably glamorous and disintegrates as the show goes on very believably. Ruth of course is superbly played and goes from frumpy downtrodden housewife to vamp to nurse to lesbian to business supremo to SM queen to Mary Fisher! Loved it all.
Oh and post-doctor Tom Baker is a catholic priest! And I'd hire Garcia any day! Look it out - it's on DVD now.
