Legends | Netflix

[Glanza]

To win the war on drugs, a group of everyday customs officers, untrained in espionage, were sent undercover into some of Britain’s most dangerous gangs.

Inspired by an incredible true story. Legends, coming May 7th.

I binge watched this on Sunday/Monday, and thought it was a worth at least 8.5/10

I thought it really built up the tension nicely, and told the story well.
It'd be great if we knew what really happened

Up to episode 4. I wouldn't usually watch such gritty shows but it's really good. The acting is good and I feel invested in most characters storylines.

Last day of holiday today, was bored and this popped up. I'm not a fan of British dramas but gabe it a shot out of boredom and ended up binging the lot in one day. Hands down one of the best British dramas I've ever seen, and possibly one of the best docudramas I've seen too. Right up there with the likes of Chernobyl.

8/10 easily. Actually screw it. I'm giving it a 9.

Just finished up with E4 and so far, so good. Mylonas steals every scene he's in and generally speaking the writing, directing and acting is all of a decent standard... but there's something not quite right with the thing that makes it feel a bit low-rent at times.

And to me that's typified by scenes where characters constantly feel the need to drop legend into the conversation... stands out far too much and doesn't come across as natural dialogue.
