William Boyd’s spy thriler, Restless, premieres tonight on BBC 1 at 9pm with  part two following tomorrow, 28 Dec also at 9pm.

For those of you in the UK you can catch on the BBC iPlayer.

Hayley Atwell as the young Eva in Restless

The first reviews are out for last week’s premier of Part One of Restless, which stars Hayley Atwell (Captain America: The First Avenger), Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey), Rufus Sewell (The Pillars of the Earth) and the dynamic acting duo of Charlotte Rampling and Michael Gambon.

According to The Hollywood Reporter:

“Having already scored with its two scripted ventures — Carlos and Appropriate Adult — Sundance Channel keeps its streak going with Restless, a superb two-part miniseries about British spies in the early 1940s before America’s entry into World War II.”

Sundance Channel will screen Part 1 of its BBC co-produced two-part thriller Restless at 9 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7 on the Sundance Channel (I assume that’s EDT).

Based on the novel by British novelist William Boyd and directed by Edward Hall, Restless follows the story of a daughter Ruth (Michelle Dockery) who discovers that her mother Sally (Charlotte Rampling) was recruited as a spy during World War II.
Hayley Atwell, Rufus Sewell and Michael Gambon co-star.
Don’t miss this gripping spy thriller – it’s fantastic.
