Plot
It follows Rupert Campbell-Black and Tony Baddingham as they have a long-standing rivalry that comes to a head. Coincidentally, Aidan Turner had previously filmed at Chavenage House (Priory in Rivals). The same filming location was also used to represent Trenwith House in the 2015 BBC TV adaptation of Poldark. Great characters, storylines, drama and 80s music to sing along to. David Tennant returns to play a fantastic antagonist. Aidan Turner is amazing as always. The cast obviously had a blast filming this movie and it showed in the series. So many talented actors and actresses in one show. The series starts off comedic and gets more dramatic as the episodes go on. The series stayed true to the book and the nature of the 80s. The characters are likeable and easy to get invested in. I finished each episode wanting to see more until the end. Here’s hoping for a season 2!
