Customer Reviews

Just because you are paranoid does not mean they are not out to get you.

Four women, Susan (Anna Maxwell Martin), Jean (Julie Graham), Millie (Rachel Stirling), and Lucy (Sophie Rundle), who previously worked at Bletchley, nine years later, pool their unique talents and resources to solve enigmas and save lives. This is a period piece, mid 50s London, so they have the clothing and hairstyles of the time. They have to maintain the dialogue of the time. This is a formula detective series with all the standard whodunits and clues. What makes this series unique is that instead of the inspector and his sidekick, we have the four women civilians using their unique code-breaking skills picked up from working in Bletchley Park during the war, to do the same thing. Even knowing it is only two seasons, it is worth the purchase. Be aware of repackaging and selling parts of the series.
