Compelling but a bit trashy story about an American ambassador to the UK whose husband was previously an ambassador but now is without post, and how they interact with the political intrigue of the many machinations going on around them. It’s quite engaging if you’re prepared to overlook the massively visible fact that it’s utterly preposterous. The addition of Alison Janney as the VP in season 2 I felt kicked things up a notch – will be looking out for season 3.
