I live near Salisbury.  It's a fine city with a beautiful cathedral with much history and pre-history in the surrounding area.  Nowadays it's mostly known for the Russian novichok poisonings.  We suffered economically through the novichok saga and were just getting back to normal then Covid 19 came along, so the poor city has seen hard times recently.  Now when novichok has all but been forgotten, they bring out a drama which will stir it all up again.  The programme about how Salisbury coped with the poisonings is on in the  next week or so, I hope it will be sensible and not too sensationalistic, there were some true heroes highlighted during that time - hopefully they'll get recognition.

I've watched the first episode so far, thought it was good.

I agree, I'm really enjoying it.   The story is quite truncated,  as it seems in the programme that the police sergeant got well over just a few days, in reality it was weeks if not months before he was discharged.  I wish we could talk to the professionals  involved to see what was true and what was story.  We in Salisbury only had what the press were told.

Well I really enjoyed that, if enjoyed is the right word. Very emotional it was such a nice touch when Dawn’s dad took Charlie to the front of the church at the funeral. Also seeing the real people at the end was a good touch.
