Um, you're working for the secret services and have a special phone to contact your terrorist brother who is on the run and you leave it in the car of your brother who is already suspicious about your activities. What no handbag, who do you know that just walks around carrying their phone, the MI5 phone and their wallet in their hand??? Stupid, beyond stupid.

And then the brother wanders up with what was presumably an empty box with some dodgy looking label for Mr No Name at the address of the terrorist cell. Bonkers. I had no sympathy for any of them by the end and I had a horrible feeeling we were supposed to feel some sympathy for Danny. Well too bad so far as I was concerned.

I watched to the end but it needed quite a lot of suspension of disbelief.
I never really understood anything much of that whole political business surrounding Khalid and the construction project (nuclear power station, was it?), or what exactly Mona's husband did - a pretty unconvincing character I thought. They were making a point I guess about terrorist funding and how the government might look the other way if something big is at stake, but I thought that whole side of things (and Mona's husband) could have been omitted altogether without much detriment to the plot. That would have left more time to bring out the family members' relationships with each other before things went downhill, which I think was needed.
