Bodyguard (Netflix)

Just finished watching this BBC associated production. I think this is one of the very best drama-thrillers I've seen on TV. It's a cross between MI-6 and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Without giving away too much, the beginning and the ending were as intense as anything I have ever watched.

1. I just finished too. The GOT (Robb Stark) actor who stars is exceptional in this role

His (Richard Madden's) talents were sort of masked in the big ensemble GOT series.

I'm glad to hear they will likely do at least one more series.

4. Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was going to be good.

Mentally, I wondered if it was going to be something like Costner/Houston film. But I assure you, this series grabs you in the first scene and it doesn't let go.

She went to bed after the first episode. I couldn’t stop watching it and finished without her.
