What could have been an interesting exploration of relationship and infidelity - a subject that never gets old - soon turns into a unconvincing yarn, lined with stereotypes and clunky plot devices with all the believability of a beach read.

Doctor Foster [has] reached berserk levels of melodrama.

It started with possibly the worst dinner party since Titus Andronicus invited Tamora's family over for meat pie.

It was a hard watch and some might have found the ending unsatisfying, but I think all of us probably lost a bit of sleep after watching this.

It also looked great - the sunny bucolic feel of early scenes giving way to a more sombre palette as he suspicions mounted. I suspect this will get darker as the series progresses.

The script was sparkily written by Olivier Award-winner Mike Bartlett - you could tell he was a playwright from the way he crowbarred in 300-year-old William Congreve quotes - but there were also some stagy narrative contrivances.

While "Doctor Foster" has the slightly cold, melancholy vibe typical of British dramas set in the present, it also possesses a fine lunacy.

Suranne Jones, who plays Gemma, is not only one of the most emotionally uninhibited actresses in television, she is also one of the most brunette. In a world of lies and dyes, her dark locks here connote authenticity.

It's a brilliant and gripping portrait of a marriage slowly being poisoned.

It's the small moments that make this a drama worth noticing. Little touches like the almost nonchalant key she drags down the side of her husband's car as she heads out for dinner with her accountant.
