This miniseries has made me into a juror and, it must be said, quite a clueless juror. The first episode was like an indictment, the second like a reconstruction of the case that supported the indictment, and the third like a defense that rather deftly undermined or even refuted what I saw... I was wild about everything I saw, and I wondered whether I was actually just rooting for the crooks. Well-acted crooks, by the way,since the casting of all the roles is excellent; apart from the performances of Charles and Diana, the one that sticks in your mind is the impeccable Michael Sheen as Chris Tarrant.

A great British mini-series that emanates exactly what I like about British production – not overused and original life story that is kind of ordinary at the same time as well and has an unobtrusive sense of humor. Moreover the British have a gift to show life stories in a naive form. That is what they do and when it is done well it is really a pleasure to watch. And what’s more, this 3 episode long series not only tells a story about a millionaire but with its premise reaches also behind the scenes of this popular TV show which was really interesting for me. Overall I have to say that even though it had 3 episodes there wasn’t one boring moment for me. Quite the opposite, I learned quite a few things and had fun as well. So why shouldn’t something this good get 5-star rating?

A solid affair with very good performances and a fine narrative structure. It's marred by the explicitly TV filming and staging of some scenes, and in the excellent last part by moments when Frears' brain takes a cabaret vacation. Otherwise, it’s a film that one devours.
