Since woke and left wing is the mainstream ideology in the UK these days, this series toes the line as well as any other series does. It is very well crafted, but its ponderous left wing messages are ever present.

Interestingly, the working class protagonist is almost a poster boy for blue pill males. He has zero clue about his own male disposability in the feminist gynocracy he serves. His boss is a woman. The politician he is assigned to protect is a woman. He almost gets shot by a female sniper in the first episode, a sniper under the orders of another female team leader. The bomb disposal expert is a woman. His own wife spurns him because she can't be bothered to deal with his PTSD issues.

But he continues to kowtow to these unsavory feminists, unaware that he is a mere pawn in their schemes. Instead, he blames conservative politicians for sending him and other working class boys to Afghanistan and Iraq. Never mind that it was a left wing British Prime Minister who led Britain into those two wars. Such a woke series, yet so spectacularly ignorant of recent history.

Acting is very good. Casting is very good. Production values are good. But the wokeness and cluelessness are unbearable.
