      Audience Member This is a really good show Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I was on the edge of my seat for every episode ... and the links to real cover-ups and political double dealing, as occasionally mentioned in the media, are there. Read Craig Murray's blogs for a start - this former UK ambassador to a real, not a fictional, central Asia "stan" - dishes the dirt in his own way. The plot of The State Within is believable, even if the gung-ho antics of the British Ambassador are not. A thoroughly thrilling experience, enhanced by the gravelly-voiced, multi-layered performance of Sharon Gless, and excellent supporting performances across the board. Watch it and wonder as history repeats itself. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Another brilliant BBC show!! It's fun to see the USA looks to Brit's:) Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member An increasingly addictive series. Great action, twists and turns, very good acting and extremely solid direction. The few melodramatic scenes drop the overall quality a tad, but there's enough screenwriting and directorial strength in display to consider this a must-see. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member 24h en beaucoup plus crà (C)dible. Passionnant de bout en bout (7 à (C)pisodes de 50 minutes). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Very complicated plot, but great twists and excellent wrap up. Probably the best miniseries I've seen!

      William Thomas Empire Magazine Complexities in early episodes can lead to bewilderment, but stick with it and you'll be rewarded with an expertly told conspiracy yarn about Anglo-American relations and the business of war. Rated: 4/5 Mar 7, 2019 Full Review Melanie McFarland Seattle Post-Intelligencer The State Within is what we'd get if the producers of 24 wanted to make us think instead of accept ever-widening leaps of logic. Mar 7, 2019 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher A riveting BBC political thriller offering one of the most trenchant explorations yet of the sick symbiosis between big government and big business. Oct 12, 2020 Full Review Seth Freilich Pajiba Six hours may be a lot to invest at one time for a show, but once you start watching, you're really going to want to have all six hours at your immediate beck and call, as you'll find it hard to patiently wait for what comes next.
