Has anybody else seen the first episode of this?
Tim Roth (speaking with his normal accent rather than some put on American one) plays Cal Lightman who is the world's leading deception expert. Think CSI but they catch the baddy by looking at body language and reactions people give to questions etc and you're pretty much there. In this episode he has to determine whether a high school student is guilty of murdering his teacher after he is caught running from her house by the police. Cue lots of interviews with different people and lots of close ups of hands clenching, eyebrows raising and teeth grinding.
Really good stuff actually. The missus only got it because it was advertised over the episode of Fringe that she was watching the other day but we both think it was great and can't wait for the next episode.
The cast is good. Only Roth seems to be the only 'named actor' I recognise but the rest of the ensemble are believable. Particularly like the guy who is 'rampantly honest' - no lies whatsoever which made for some funy comments.
I recommend this highly!!
