Gripping Stuff - Bodyguard review by RR
Watched this on TV when it came out and hired Discs 1 and 2 to revisit. Gripped from start to finish on both discs. You are kept guessing throughout and it would be difficult to guess how the end of Disc 2 turned out. Might need to suspend disbelief once or twice but good viewing.

Might have been good - Bodyguard review by Ken
Watched the first 20 minutes of the first episode and it was looking promising - dramatic, intriguing, gripping, beautifully shot. Unfortunately there was too much foul language, especially the "F" word. Sad that script writers can't write a gripping drama without descending into gutter language. Sent the disc back.
