TV Series Review: THE STATE WITHIN (2006) 7 episodes C-


Interesting Action Adventure BBC miniseries that ran in 2006.  

In this series the British Ambassador to Washington who is possibly in line to be the next prime minister runs into all sorts of trouble  when he enters into a web of tangled relationships with foreign countries and the military industrial complex. Just finished the third episode and hope that the total picture becomes clear.

May be worth a try.

New:  After completing the miniseries of 7 episodes (never renewed by BBC) . . .  I found the acting good but the story line TOTALLY INCOMPREHENSIBLE.  The tangled relationships never became clear and watching the series turned out to be a waste of time.  In addition it appeared that the screenwriters attempted to make the US Secretary of Defence look like a law breaker of the first order.  SHARON GLESS OF Cagney and Lacy was terribly miscast in this part.
