	Media	Author	Review
		Anita Singh Telegraph	"The assassination of Alexander Litvinenko is handled sensitively in this solid crime drama - but events turn prosaic far too soon (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Laura Vickers-Green Den of Geek	"A bold, powerful, furious statement on high-scale corruption"
		Joel Golby The Guardian	"David Tennant’s accent in this crime drama is so bad, it’s unwatchable (...) David Tennant isn’t doing a Russian accent in Litvinenko. He is just doing José Mourinho’s voice."
		James Hibbs Radio Times	"A compelling story, competently told (...) David Tennant, Margarita Levieva and Neil Maskell are enthralling in this surprisingly traditional drama. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Although the timeliness of any series featuring Vladimir Putin as the big bad is impossible to deny, it’s also so obvious that it’s hard to know what telling the story, or telling it in this way, adds."
		Chase Hutchinson Collider	For all its committed performances, it is a work whose dramatic elements are too haphazardly and hurriedly sketched to leave an impact.
		Lucy Mangan The Guardian	"This dramatisation of the poisoning of an ex-Russian spy takes a murder and turns it into a plodding police procedural that’s far less interesting than the truth. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
