The book was funny.
The series is just grim. Green tinged lighting, everything seems bleak, not funny, no-one seems to have any empathy.
It's a world away from my experiences with the NHS.
Ben Whiteshaw gives another dead eyed, Charlotte Rampling style performance of miserable grimness. There is no light in his eyes, no sense of compassion or what is going on behind the mask. So you have little empathy for the main character, or in fact any of them which isn't the case with the book.
I felt depressed after watching it and trying to give it a chance after a couple of episodes, but I can't carry on. It's just too bleak. A horrible series.
