Glad I waited to see this on TV rather than paying at the cinema. Despite a stellar cast this film really is dire. Stereotyped writing, narrative and characters and the directors clear bias is sewn throughout what could and should have been a cinematic experience. absolutely dire and historically misrepresented account of London and its people during the period.

I was looking forward to this but it’s really poorly executed. The billing making reference to Line of Duty is very misleading. There are so many misrepresentation and inconsistencies and the events portrayed bear no resemblance to real life. It is hard to warm to or like any of the characters who are either lack any dimension and the key characters overt aggressive attitude is painful to watch. There was so much potential however the show failed to deliver.
