Canberra-based political intrigue based on Australia-US-China relations, featuring an actress who I kept thinking “looked a lot like Olivia Dunham from Fringe, only less boring” until I googled it and found it was the same actress. Quite well-executed, and I didn’t even find the accents too annoying! Daniel Wyllie’s character seemed all too real as the kind of pillock I wish wasn’t in Australian politics but yet seems to be ubiquitous, and Alan Dale’s PM seemed infinitely more statesmanlike than anyone on the scene in real life at the minute. No Jeb Bartlett though… 👍
