Who has watched this prophetic TV series.

Set in 2024 approaching a General Election and beyond. Boris Johnson has been ousted in a coup replaced by a black prime minister. Russia invades Ukraine.
It charts the story of a Muslim female student (computer expert) on a gap year from university working ay GCHQ on work experience and the cyber battle with Russia.

Watched all six episodes and it is amazing.

Yes and considering it must have been written and filmed, all six episodes available, before recent events it does prophecy a plausible future.

Mostly Glasgow-ish. Mostly.

I've watched all six episodes this weekend and it was hugely impressive. Although very obviously shot months ago as the war in Ukraine wasn't referenced at all. Have to say the final episode was a very tense watch, and without spoiling the ending it's fair to say this more than merits a second series.

I really enjoyed this too - one of the best series I've seen for a while.

I thought the scenario in episode 5 was unlikely in reality.

An interesting series which I've watched over the last week. Although the ending is on a bit of a cliffhanger, ready for a second series I would imagine.

Worth watching, although it was pretty hilarious watching GCHQ people using memory sticks and walking off without locking their PCs
