The flip-side might have been worse of course (or maybe hilarious) if they were trying their best to sound Russian/Ukranian. Maybe it should have just had subtitles.

In the end it was the means of delivery that ruined it. Sky On Demand inexplicably dropped the download twice and the second time I couldn't be bothered any more.
Apparently they started production with the cast doing generic russian accents and it didn’t work.

Started on this last night and I’m fucking hooked.
