After getting badly involved, middle manager Thomas Penso is embarking on a new mission to get the client back. Now, Thomas feels suddenly undermined by his team. Thomas began to find Bartlett, who creates the same persecution of bullying in the workplace again. Bartlett got used to this as he did it with betrayal at home.
Chiefly, this failed to hit home because all the characters were so damned unlikable. It was like the worst ever extended episode of The Apprentice, if you can shudder to imagine that.
The trouble is that it really is about middle management and that's dull, unless it's Ricky Gervais. Imagine a dramatised version of The Apprentice, and you'll have a good idea of whether or not it's for you.
