Bouquet of Barbed Wire: brilliant reviews for Tom

More press previews have appeared with 2 brilliant reviews for Tom.

Heat Magazine - Way back in the 70's, there was this amazing drama series which featured so much illicit sex it caused a minor scandal. Here's a very slick remake which luckily keeps the sick twisted tone of the original, even if it rather lacks gratuitous nudity. On the plus side, the story and performances are gripping, with top marks to hot Tom Riley as the young teacher who ruins everyone's lives.

Grazia Magazine - This superlative ITV drama is not to be missed - whether you remember the headline grabbing 1970's original or not. Centring on a father and daughter whose relationship is far from healthy - and whose lives are upended when the daughter becomes pregnant by her creepy teacher - it's weird, worrying and totally absorbing, with excellent performances from Trevor Eve, Tom Riley and newcomer Imogen Poots.

Saturday Express - ...one of ITV's most fantastically absorbing dramas in a long while...

Daily Mail (weekend) - Wow this is good. Melodramatic, but good...a sharp script and terrific performances make this first of three episodes a cracking start to a decidedly impressive week for ITV.
