Should be detailed as its over 6 eps.
She was.

Re: The Trial of Christine Keeler.

It was very well done but I thought Profumo was badly cast . He was in fact quite distinguished looking . Badly cast too was the Russian ,he wasn’t that old !
On the other hand James Norton well chosen and the girls too.

I enjoyed it tonight, too.
I believe the next episode is tomorrow, isn't it?

Re: The Trial of Christine Keeler.

I am looking forward to seeing this program. I was at Grammar School when the Profumo Scandal erupted. Every Monday morning the News of the World was our salacious read, eagerly passed from hand to hand.

Re: The Trial of Christine Keeler.

I gave it 30 minutes because it was very well presented - no obvious anachronisms and no obvious "acting".

But ..... I found the slow pace and the intrusive timeshifts off-putting.

Nevertheless, I suspect that most viewers will find the opposite and that the series will be a "smash".

Re: The Trial of Christine Keeler.

It a good thing that the main protagonists are all dead or the police would be wasting time investigating them all .( not that that appears to stop them)

Omah, l am with you on this one! It was a bit yawn..zzzz!!
It was only on for an hour and l felt it had been on all night!
My question is, Why didn’t the taxi driver ring for the police when the man was shooting at the girls and the house?

He might not have had a mobile phone on him at the time.

Yeah but there must’ve been a red phonebox nearby?

It’s funny how we now take having a mobile phone on hand for granted!
