I've given it a 9, not because it is the most amazing show on the planet, but because it successfully achieves what it sets out to do. It's entertainment. No stress, no drama just silly watchable fun and in some fantastic locations. So, please ignore the negative comments, put your feet up and enjoy. Here's hoping for another series.

This show is perfect. It has action, adventures, drama and a lot of comedy. The leading actors are brilliant and funny they did a great job. The writers are top notch, all 8 episodes were brilliantly written and directed. I recommend this TV show to anyone who loves this kind (treasure hunting) of entertainment. Hopefully we get more seasons.I'm loving this series. Like a few of you, I decided to wait until a few episodes had been shown. I was a bit concerned that it may just be a bad copy of Indiana Jones, but I'm glad to say it isn't. I think the reason for this is the Lady companion. She travels with Hooten, and gets into some scrapes too. The chemistry is obviously building between them, and it's a Love/Hate relationship - which I was completely expecting.A lot of people are comparing it to Indiana Jones and Romancing the Stone, which is true, it also very much reminds me of the Uncharted games which are great also. Give it a go, it is worth a look.

I know there are some reviews panning this but I have really enjoyed it! Yes, it's not an original idea but frankly TV execs rarely do these days. The stories have been engaging and interesting, to the point where I want to go and find out a bit more about the legends involved. The dynamic between the two characters has been brilliantly written and the humour mixed with the action has been entertaining. I've watched the whole set in a few days and after thinking "I'll record it and give it a go", not expecting much but will be truly disappointed if it isn't followed up by Season 2. Easy to watch, funny, action packed and tours beautiful locations.

Quirky characters and ridiculous situations each episode make this show a lot of fun. The chemistry between its stars(Ophelia Lovibond, Michael Landes) reminds me of the chemistry Douglas and Turner shared in the movies "Romancing the Stone" and "The Jewel of the Nile", (1984, 1985). A different wrinkle is that he is American, she is British. The banter between these two can reach a fever pitch that David and Maddie often arrived at on "Moonlighting,(1985-1989). Borrowing from the 80's doesn't always equal success but here it has. It works. I love it. I highly recommend it. It has been a great escape that I look forward to every Friday. Sky 1 simply has to renew this little gem! Yeah, I said it.
