dave b @RT51811019 Dec 24 I loved the linkage between Bletchley and post war Britain. Intrepid women chasing a mass murderer. Riveting. A great premise. Excellent acting. Very good cinematography. See more 02/13/2019 Stumbled across this on Netflix as you do, thought I'd give it the 5 minute rule . I wasn't sure TBH it looked okay so I gave it some overtime and ten minutes in I'd put the remote down. Quite different from what you may expect and gentle but we'll written, the soft core crime thriller that most people could watch. With a little bit of 1950s girl power thrown in the mix meets a grown up version of scooby doo without the dog. Will they solve the crimes , of course we know that they will this is feel good telly but it's better than freeking Brexit . See more 08/06/2018 Absolutely juvenile TV. Like the Hardy boys or the secret seven but with middle aged women. Avoids having to require a narrative or show actual detective work by resorting to pseudo-scientific hocum and throws terms like vector paths about like they're on the bridge of the starship enterprise. Asinine viewing. See more 08/10/2017 I was struck by the way women were portrayed in this television show. It was educational for me, to see how far women have come. What I take for granted for myself, for my daughter, was won for us by brave women everywhere, as depicted in this creatively written, and flawlessly portrayed period drama. The Bletchley Circle is intelligent and emotional--and I loved every minute of it. As one of the more thought-provoking period dramas on television, it's a shame the series was cancelled after only two series. I can't help but think that if there were more episodes made, the audience would only grow. See more 01/22/2016 I love this series, it's very riveting. well done ITV! See more don s @RT97868663 08/25/2015 An amazingly simple premise - female code-breakers from the war still wanting to make a difference - played out in a superb manner. Very well acted, perfectly scripted and runs at a good pace. This is top television. See more Read all reviews
