A very dramatic opening, one that definitely grabs your attention. It's a very interesting storyline, intriguing also because you can see politics at play, and the fact that the Lyell team and Police are obstructed by the powers that be.
It's like a fashion shoot, the episode is full of gorgeous looking people, beautiful women, gorgeous men, a little unrealistic I guess.
The acting is excellent, Anamaria Marinca in particular stands out, a true talent. No real backstory for any of the regulars, it's totally story focused. Some great action moments.
A story very relevant to the time, Russian Oligarchs were big news. The Crimea had been annexed, so tensions between Russia and the west were hugely strained.
An interesting watch, both politically and for the story. 8/10
