Thats your excuse then for not understanding what it was about !
The writer is highly thought of ,
The Assasination Of Gianni Versace
Child44
just two .
I read that this happened to a friend of his ,I take it the son .
Seven episodes should reveal a lot .

Perhaps very influential moguls like the character RG is playing are very well able to watch operations .
What about those studying medicine don’t they sometimes get to watch from viewing platforms ?

I couldn't care less if the writer is highly thought of or not, it didn't appeal to me. The characters were just not realistic, who behaves in the ways they did? You are right of course in that the following episodes will probably reveal more but I'm not sure I am prepared to wait that long. It's a shame because there are some good actors in it.

Of course they do but not the patient's parents. How ridiculous was that.

Re: Richard Gere

I watched it I won't pretend I understood it all but I am sticking with it as they may bring it all together in the next episodes.

Met Richard Gere in a lift in London once very gentlemanly man he held the doors for me to get the push chair out and then helped carry it down a flight of stairs. One of the nicer celebs I have met.

He does seem like a nice bloke, that doesn't surprise me. (nice to see you back Julie).

Re: Richard Gere

I found the pathetic casting by the BBC to show how politically correct it is annoying. After ten minutes I gave up.

What on earth is that supposed to mean?
Why was the casting pathetic?
In what way?

Glad you asked because I am struggling to see the PC in it, unless people don't want to see any black faces on TV at all.

Are you absolutely sure you know for sure and certain exactly what money can and cannot buy ?
