Not in the class of other police procedurals, such as Spiral or Prime Suspect. The chosen approach of cataloguing the aftermath of Nilsen's crimes robs the drama of any tension whatsoever. Tennant seems to just play himself. Certainly no masterclass, as others have said on here. Nothing remotely chilling about his portrayal of Nielsen. Nothing seems to happen in episode 2, so there is a loss of pace, with episode 3, finally attempting to answer the question of why he did his crimes. A triumph of hype over substance. Disappointing.
This was such a well written and well developed script! Absolutely amazing acting by David Tennant who deserves all the awards for this. Knocked it out of the park. Daniel Myers and Jason Watkins were wonderful as well. All in all, a very well acted, and sensitive real life drama.
