Mailman and Griffiths are absolute dynamite together ... there’s a great deal of nuance in their relationship that acknowledges the brutal reality women face in politics and the double standards placed upon them. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Helen G Dec 1 I'm loving Total Control. Think it is the best role Deborah Mailman has been in; it shows her as an accomplished actor, caring, raw and gutsy. Rachael Griffiths, always good, shines in this role. The story shines a light on Australian Parliament in all its glory, warts and all. Please keep the seasons coming!
