CGiii Comment

Highly polished and completely compelling...

Australia...not known for quality TV productions - well, if this is anything to go by, times have changed.

The full gamut of character and emotion are present - the beautiful, the ugly, requited and unrequited love, the misery of hate, the destruction of discrimination, the isolation of wealth...huge in scope, played to perfection, written with thought and directed with skill.

Seriously, this is good television...despite the cheesy trailer.
