A gripping, suspenseful thriller over 24 episodes, generally well acted, especially by Kiefer Sutherland as the impossibly perfect federal agent, while the security service he works for and in whose employ he risks his life numerous times in the 24 hours distrusts him and is ready to sacrifice him to avoid political embarrassment! It is also penetrated by terrorist agents who can even manage to take over the CCTV camera system. An agent - one only - sent check out a "safe house" approaches openly on foot and wanders about the garden in full view until shot dead by a terrorist sensibly hiding behind a tree. Is the reality really this bad? One hopes not. But then this is just entertainment, isn't it?
