The Hour (BBC / BBC America) - anyone else watching it?

It's a rather good mini-series about three journalists in a groundbreaking BBC news show in 1956 - in the middle of the Suez Crisis and the Soviet invasion of Hungary. On the BBC, next week will be the sixth and final episode, but BBC America started broadcasting it this week, as it turns out.
I'll just link to the NYT's review for anyone who's not watching yet but thinks it might be worth checking out (while noting in passing that calling Romola Garai "alluringly but not conventionally pretty" is quite the understatement... but then, there's no accounting for tastes and all that).

If you are implying that I am posting about The Hour just because of Romola Garai...

The first episode is slow, but the episodes get better and better as they go

Now that's what I call going out with a bang... I did not expect the final episode to be this good.
