A third audience member praised the show as “Addictive bingeworthy” and elaborated: “The good thing about this mini-series is that there is a lot of action, good fighting scenes, a little suspense and mystery and overall good acting.”
Henshall previously revealed what drew him to the scripts for the Netflix thriller: “I love Jack Lothian’s writing and I was enthusiastic to work with Netflix having never worked with them before and with Left Bank because I’m an admirer of their work. Also the thought of going to spend four months in Barcelona I can’t say wasn’t an added bonus!”
He continued: “Although I didn’t quite keep in mind how hot it would be. Coming from shooting in Shetland to suddenly being in the middle of Barcelona in the summer working in 42 degrees with the humidity.
“And you’re indoors without air conditioning because otherwise the sound department would pick it up.
“I was wearing a suit and given my Scottish complexion I was afraid that at some point I was going to just melt into a little puddle on the floor.”
He added: “At times my main focus was just to plead with my sweat glands to behave.”
