    Stellar British cast with a wonderful performance from Cush Jumbo . Great storyline development that will keep you entertained. Lots of twists.

    Stay Close is a British mystery/drama series based on the Harlan Coben novel of the same title. I was interested in this because Cush Jumbo had the lead role. I've enjoyed her acting - and, she does an excellent job here.

    Stay Close benefits from fine performances and a story that gives just enough clues in the first episode to keep viewers intrigued and — more importantly — not frustrated with purposely obtuse writing.

    Stay Close promises more of almost exactly the same – including Richard Armitage, who is now seedy photographer Ray and, by the end of the opening episode, about to become firmly tied into the main plot.

    It is, I must admit, quite entertaining. If you can swallow the clichés and the cheesy, conspicuous score, you might actually end up caring what happens to Megan. And whether Izzard perks up enough to get any lines.
