TV review - Strike Back

Starring Warren Brown, Daniel McPherson and Alin Sumanwata

Sky 1 Thursday 9PM

Back for a seventh series under the subtitle Silent Warfare (though in the US it is Revolution) Strike Back the TV show that has action scenes that some Hollywood Action movies would kill for. British special ops group Section 20 find themselves in Kula Lumper after a British intelligence agent is murdered there. In this first episode alone we get many twists and turns as our heroes discover that the Russians have lost an nuclear bomb. The opening episode has not 1 but 2 gunfights as our heroes are confronted by Triad gangsters with the latter seeing them forced going to the roof of a skyscraper as their escape route is cut off  by the gangsters. With a rare straight role for Ade Edamson as a British diplomat Strike Back is a show that offers viewers edge of the seat thrills
