Lo scandalo del gioco d'azzardo

Text: Warning: This review is written by a contributor that has NOT viewed the whole series.

What an inspiring start - seemingly effortless character development and, most of the time, a good historical account.

Our protagonist begins his life as an able athlete - close to elite level. Various turns of life leads his path away from a sporting career into the world of gambling. Once there he is slowly being lured, seduced, into less savoury methods of improving his odds...

This is one of the better pilot episodes, of any series, for a long time. Future episodes will determine the end result.

Spelskandalen is off a great start and appears well worth a bet...
