Posted Under: Photos, The Syndicate

The Telegraph has posted a new article on The Syndicate as well as a new photo of Matthew and co-star Amy, who play Jamie and Amy (Jamie’s sister-in-law) respectively. The article mostly focuses on Denise, one of the winners in The Syndicate. The photo may be seen in the gallery.
In the must-watch but can’t-look Grand Guignol BBC One serial The Syndicate, Timothy Spall is the dreamboat among the male cast members. Among the females it has to be Denise, because she is the only one with a personality. But it has to be admitted that when she got her teeth fixed, there was still half an acre of her outer surface that might still have repaid attention. No doubt the actress, Lorraine Bruce, looks like Keira Knightley in real life.
If you don’t know the plot, here it is. Five employees in a doomed supermarket somewhere near Leeds win 18 million pounds of lottery money between them. What happens next is a mixture of Spend Spend Spend and every other show in which you have seen people of restricted mental capacity having their lives torched by unrestricted wealth.
The Syndicate airs on Tuesday nights at 9pm on BBC One. There are two episodes left, with the fifth episode focused on Matthew’s character Jamie.

I don’t like The Telegraph’s review at all. It looks like Clive James had seen only the second episode before his article. Otherwise he wouldn’t think that Denise plays such a big role in whole the drama. She has her own story like the others.
