This is a well produced TV series anchored strongly by Archie Panjabi who's face spends much time filling the screen, but thats no bad thing. Good to see such a real drama that drastically affects this very British family in a highly contemporary storyline. Its not perfect but overall it ratchets up the tension and keeps the viewer intensely engaged. Good performances all round ensuring you empathise with the human mistakes they make because of the closeness of kin.
However it makes no sense to me that this family after the police started targeting them that they did not have an attorney to help them through the police harassment and investigation.
A slow and pedantic series with several pointless scenes and whimsical 'face the camera' dialogue. Shades of Bollywood in this drama targeted at UK minorities. Mood musicians must have made a packet out of it.
The best way to educate is through emotions. If we can get to the heart of a person, we usually succeed! So, with all that is going on in the world these days, it's important for us to try to keep an open mind. What's happening in the Middle East is very confusing to many of us. As for me, with this film I am able to see how a young man can be recruited to a terrorist cell. Taking place in the England, we can see people from all walks of life caught up in this tragedy. The main character, Mon, cannot see how her nephew Danish could betray his father & his family, but these things happen. It can happen so quickly. We are all looking for some kind of purpose in life! Perhaps Danish saw a higher purpose for himself by joining this terrorist cell. They made him feel important, like he was part of something big, something important. Proper make mistakes. And sometimes there's no turning back from these decisions! Even though this family seems to be a loving one, families can have all kinds of complexities. This film had a deep emotional impact on me. And it helped me tremendously on my journey to understand what's going on in our world today. Understanding & education are crucial to finding positive solutions. I really believe that. So, I thank the makers of this series for helping to open my eyes & see more clearly!
