State of Play Series 1
Stephen Collins is an ambitious politician. Cal McAffrey is a
well-respected investigative journalist and Stephen's ex-campaign
manager. En route to work one morning, Stephen's research assistant
mysteriously falls to her death on the London Underground.
It's
not long before revelations of their affair hit the headlines. Meanwhile
a suspected teenage drug dealer is found shot dead. These (apparently
unconnected) events expose a dangerous habit within modern government of
dancing too closely with the corporate devil. Friendships are tested and
lives are put on the line as an intricate web of lies unfolds.
The
riveting BBC series State of Play features some of the UK's finest
actors that is filled with murder, intrigue and mystery. Ironically this
series feels reminiscent of 24 with its complex and twisted plot lines
that will draw the viewer right into the series from the word go.
Presented in glorious 16:9 widescreen with Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo,
this series is as close as you could get to the big screen. Match that
with some episode commentary and you get a true insight into the behind
the scenes of State of Play. |
