First viewed : 7 June 1992
Well the critics didn't seem over-impressed with this conspiracy thriller inspired by the BSE scandal but I enjoyed it. Bob Peck played Andrew Fell. an advertising executive who seeks out the truth behind the death of his former girlfriend, who was investigating the meat market, and ends up being framed for murder himself.
I came into it at the second episode ( seeing the first on repeat in 1995 ) due to Arkie Whiteley being in it and certainly got a good look at her if you know what I mean . I was also grabbed by the fact that Fell and his treacherous friend Towne ( Dennis Lawson ) regularly test each other's pop knowledge. It was this series that introduced me to The Jim Carroll Band classic, People Who Died .
The series was pretty melodramatic with a suitably nailbiting life-or-death struggle at its climax.
