A welcome and long-awaited return to the small-screen for Richard Armitage, though he featured only briefly in this first episode. Abundant sub-plots focusing on each protagonist in turn, which kept the viewer on their toes, but rather too many flashbacks and over-cooked replays dwelling on the gorier incidents for my tastes.
This series is a complex mix of medical action drama and personal drama sub-plots. My concern is that the latter will dominate the former and this will become yet another soap. Having said that, I am looking forward to the next episode in the hope that Richard Armitage's character will be featured in more depth and detail than his rather bland colleagues who do not always convince in the medical department. He is the stand-out so far...
