BBC is killing it lately with its cop dramas and the 1st 2 episodes of this have been top class. On the Iplayer if you have missed it, really nailed it especially the claustrophobic submarine setting

Holy s*** this is fantastic, really gripping and tense, and I love the fact its two sides of the coin with the tension on board Vigil matched by the cop story on the mainland being absolutely fascinating :) can't wait for next week

Well I really enjoyed this, good script, excellent cast, haunting score and definitely WWAW all six episodes on iplayer now

I'd probably downgrade my 'OK'. It got more and more far fetched and the whole thing ended up quite preposterous. Suranne Jones' character was just as annoying as her role and power on the sub was far fetched and ridiculous. I felt the whole programme just didn't have a clue what it actually wanted to be so pretty much failed in them all.

I'll watch it shortly and try not to worry too much as writers rarely get the military right, and the less said about the berets plonked on the heads of actors the better...
