(More customer reviews)As IMDB says Hawkesworth didn't cop the "budget restraints" plea with "Danger UXB" like so many others would have done; he used what he could get to their fullest. He used the actual techniques used by EOD, RE, in exact detail, using real defused German bombs.
The criticisms leveled at the dialogue have more to do with the ability to understand a varity of British accents than the script. I found no trouble understand all of the laconic, witty or stressed comments that illustrate the general unpreparedness of the British authorities and public for the fact that not all bombs explode nicely on impact. Often the UXB does more harm than the explosion by the sheer threat posed in the location it lands for example the one that landed between the Thames and the Underground Rail.
A superb series with the very young Anthony Andrews showing early star qualities.
