Episode 1 was excellent even with the absence of Micky. My comment is about episode 2. The story had great potential until the introduction of Billy. I hated to whole story from there on. The actor who portrays Billy fails to be convincing. Also, My interpretation is Billy is a grifter for laughs and money instead of the art and finesse. This is why I started watching Hustle. The cons were absolutely believable. I just can't see it with the new guy. Im effectively terminating hustle from my TV routine. I guess it's just the re-runs for me and my friends until Mr. Tony Jordan get enough complaints to re-vamp the show back to authenticity and believability. Three years ago a friend told me this BBC show would blow my mind....He was right. I'd been an avid watcher. My friend and I are so disgusted on how the show changed we cant waste time watching it anymore. Final note: I knew with the exit of Micky it was going to be rough. After seeing episode 1 the gang can handle things perfectly without having to slow the pace down and getting to know another person.
