It's not, I have just been watching several other series which are much better. If I was only watching Thirteen I would probably give it an 8/10
Its good but I didn't feel there was enough going on. A bit predictable

That's why I wanted a bittersweet ending - but a lot of TV nowadays is predictable - it's all the same and half the people who watch a program have guessed the ending correctly by the time the series ends.

Exactly!
I want to know what happens to Phobe- does she recover, Ivy- how does she end up, Lisa- what happens to hers and Elliot's friendship?

There should be a second season, but I doubt it will happen.
Loved it, I pretty much love every bbc drama they show!
Waiting for the 2nd episode of The A Word now :smile:

The first ep was brilliant !
Did you watch War and Peace?
Loved the series as a whole, but I felt episode 5 was a bit flat. It just sort of fizzled out leaving questions unanswered.

Sadly I don't think there's anyway to squeeze a second series out :frown:

Omg did anyone see the finale!!! JeeZ
Great series up until the last 15 minutes.

Almost like the producers ran out of budget and had to wind things up pdq.

Implausible in places, but on the whole gripping and well acted.

Have you watched any of the Jimmy McGovern 'Accused' (2012) drama's? Gritty, harrowing and outstandingly well acted. I particularly liked 'Mo's story' with leads by Anne Marie Duff and Olivia Colman who is a revelation.
