New international military conspiracy drama starts tonight on BBC2. ( repeated Monday) .If the reviews are anything to go by should be a real doozy. Thirteen episodes would take it nicely to the next Homeland series. :thumbsup:

I'll give it a go since you give it the thumbs up Glen. I do enjoy a good conspiracy thriller. :D

Well it's thanks to you Dazzle, Parkerman and Brucie for the heads up that I first watched Homeland . Lets hope Odyssey has the same quality.

Half-way through the series ,have to say disappointing. Not to the same standard as Homeland imo. Plot lacks the surprise factor. Some of the violence shown is far too graphic and contributes nothing to the storyline, again imo.

I agree, Glen. It's not a patch on Homeland. It's very repetitive. Odelle seems very resourceful in general which makes her failure to communicate with the outside world all the more unbelievable.

That's a shame! I haven't watched any yet but I have the episodes recorded. I never have time to watch everything I tape, so I'll probably give this a miss since neither you or Parkerman are impressed.

At least Homeland's back on October 12th. Only just over two months to wait... :)
