I’VE BEEN SPOILT BY STREAMING. Netflix and Amazon Prime upload whole series at once. I don’t necessarily want to binge-watch everything in one go, but I do like having the show on tap.
The BBC doesn’t do this. Happy Valley, the gripping crime drama set in Yorkshire, was released every week and each episode became a national talking point. Liaison, Apple TV’s new spy series, was also streamed weekly. I diligently watched all six episodes before giving you my verdict.
It’s a thumbs up, albeit measured. is Apple TV’s first Anglo-French production. I do love a drama with a good mix of conspiracies, geopolitics and espionage and here Liaison delivers. The show’s creator, Virginie Brac, was a writer on , the superb French cop show that had a small legion of devoted British fans.
