Then I watched the final two episodes of Chernobyl - it was very powerful, occasionally hard to watch, but like most of these things, it seemed too long for its own good, but clearly they wanted to have five hours so there's some unnecessary repetition. The acting was terrific, and the writing mostly terrific with a few clunky passages. The direction was fine and the Blu-ray looks very good. The one big no for me was the score, which is more sound design than music - yes, there's some of the usual choral dirge stuff, maybe five minutes - the rest is just noise, really, and not my cuppa. If you like this sort of drama it comes highly recommended.
