Who do MI5 and MI6 work for? Who do GCHQ work for? Who do the MOD work for?
I thought it was the Government, or more relevantly, the British voters/public.
Accidental Prime Minister, Tom Dawkins, is of that view and the story follows his struggle against the self-serving to adhere to those values.
But it is an uphill struggling.
Worryingly, I believe the sort of unsupportive back stabbing antics of the likes of the reprehensible Ros Yelland and Felix Durrell, and then there was the sheer arrogance of banker Sir Michael Rix, who seemed quite happy to have the British public got to war just to make more money for himself.
Maybe there were aspects of the main story that were farfetched, at least I hope so, but the portrayal of Government, banking, corporate politics is of concern. I am not so sure this was fiction.
Gabrielle Byrne was excellent as Prime Minsister, Tom Dawkins. He would get my vote.
I don't really believe that journalist Ellis Kane would get so close to the PM so easily, nor that Agnes Evans could go undetected for so long.
I was confused that the American Petroflex Corporation was headed up by a Brit.
The most disappointing aspect of this drama was the ending.
It just finished on a cliff hanger, everything that had gone before left in the air. Was a second series int heir mind? It never came to fruition if it was.
