I would think that anyone who watches this series and then compares it to the last 10 years or so of James Bond films will easily be able to discern serious story telling from CGI cluttered inanity.
I was mesmerized by this series and IMMEDIATELY became a fan of Sam Neil.
The sets, the wardrobe, all first rate. The supporting cast, as is so often the case with these British entries, is superb.
The direction is better than on most big budget action films and really The best espionage story ever told.
While I did enjoy Sean Connery and the earliest of Bond films this is the real deal, and Sam Neil is, forever, the man who Ian Fleming called the real James Bond.
Leave it to the Brits to get it right.
