This is a stunning piece of television and i urge anyone who is in two minds to just buy it and watch it. It had me gripped - so much so that i watched all 4 episodes back to back in one go. All the cast are fabulous, though if i had to pick a stand out performance it would be Robert Sheehan's. The story has multiple twists that i, for one, did not see coming and was suitably humorous and heart breaking in equal measures. The soundtrack is also brilliant in helping tell the story.
Series 2 is being filmed at present (April 2011) and i look forward to what is still to come...

Don't watch this because Robert Sheehan is that guy from the misfits. Watch it because he's a great actor in a great role, and for the other great Irish actors in Love/Hate.
Personally I couldn't get enough. I hear there'll be a season 2. :)

It is an excellent must see drama that we would highly recommend.
Excellent story and excellent acting, depicting the realities of some people's lives in gangland modern Dublin.
