    Quibbles aside there's no denying that Inside Man is engaging television, and having seen further episodes beyond the series opener, that doesn't let up. In fact, as things progress and the story becomes more clearly defined, it's very much to the series' benefit. Episode 2 feels like a step up and is well worth sticking around for, even if you're unconvinced by the first.

    Inside Man is typical Moffat fare. Rollickingly confident, meaty, funny, clever (if not quite as clever, on a line by line basis, as it appears).

    Aside from a handful of strong performances this series is absolutely ludicrous and so preposterous that it makes it almost unwatchable.

    Couldn’t even get through the first two episodes, writing is terrible, characters unlikeable and the plot is moronic. BBC prove yet againCouldn’t even get through the first two episodes, writing is terrible, characters unlikeable and the plot is moronic. BBC prove yet again that they are the worst broadcaster for any form of dramatised entertainment. Seen as they desperately try to hold an entire nation to ransom to pay for their service they could at least try and spend some of their millions on decent writers and production crews. Time to put their money where their mouth is and make their service optional for anyone wanting to watch live tv. Then we’d see who actually wants to pay for this drivel. Full Review »

    David Tennant's performance was amazing but his character was so stupid that it ruined the whole show.
