    I started watching this today, after seeing a trailer for the second series, and am almost finished with the first series. The production values are excellent, all the period details from 1960's London. We have the mandatory doses of social commentary, of course.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
