Doctor Foster (2015)
Seeing as i really like Suranne Jones i thought i'd give this acclaimed series a go. After twenty minutes of this drama about a woman who discovers her husband is having an affair i was wondering how they could possibly stretch it out over five hourly episodes.
However it's testament to both writer Mike Bartlett and a very good cast that at the end of the first episode i was moving on straight away to episode two. In all honesty i could have watched the whole thing in one go but eventually allowed it to play out over two evenings.
A series that grips you from the first episode and was at times both surprising, often funny, sometimes rather dark but always extremely watchable. And yes, Suranne Jones was brilliant.
