Yes. Watched the first 3 last night !
Found it fascinating how many British people were involved, both being in charge, running the hospitals and doing the mining etc. The main guy in charge who hung himself in the first few moments was a proper English gentleman - Who knew? -

No, it's much more than just a British accent from an English actor. I can understand the logic that the guy who is in the show is English, and that he isn't trying to do a broken Russian accent etc, but its really so much much more.
Its his mannerisms, his deportment, how he holds himself, his stiff upper lip, his english reserve etc etc that show him to be an English Gentleman. Not just an English actor playing a part.
Its like saying that if someone who had a generic american accent was on there, it wouldn't make them american, however if they had a strong South Boston "Southie" Accent then they would really seem out of place unless the character was supposed to actually be from there.
If you want to see how it should be done correctly, check out 'Das Boot' which has a mixture of languages, subtitles when required and an authentic German cast to tell a universal story.
EDIT: Just found this link explaining it...

Yeah, its funny that the link I found out later about it makes the same point as I had made about an American accent (or lack thereof being used) I guess that they didn't use american accents because as they said, it would 'jar' with american viewers and sound out of place - Well thats the way it sounds to me, hearing 'my' accent being used.
However, that issue aside, I agree that its a remarkable piece of Television and I'll be sitting down to watch the remainder of it later tonight

Here you go: https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-p...s-watchin.html
As a man who was grown up in the Soviet Union, I confirm that the show is VERY realistic. Just every single detail of it. At least in 1-4 episodes. Course nobody did anything at a gun point. The military securing was a normal thing (the strategic objects like nuclear stations are always secured by military soldiers and KGB/FSB), but nobody will aim a gun at you, because here it is a serious crime. And we haven't called each other "comrades" in the real life. But everything else is very realistic.Obey the CowgodComment

It's co-produced by US and UK companies, shot in Vilnius, Lithuania, Ignalina, Lithuania, Chernobyl, Ukraine and other places but with mostly British actors. All of the dialog is English, not overdubbed, except all of the warnings and announcements from the government, which is in Russian. (IMDB)
It's a great show. It's scary as fuck, and just as depressing.
I was slightly disappointed about the end of Episode 3 (The pregnant wife). Considering how scary the show had been up to that point, I was expecting a truly horrifying childbirth scene, but it didn't happen. But still, each episode delivers. It's bleak, scary and depressing and you wonder how anyone could have gone through what these people went through.Comment

It is scary because it's very realistic. As about the pregnant woman, the wives of the liquidators were literally kicked out the clinics because their husbands were shining. The doctors who tried to save their lives got a deadly dose of radiation too.
This is alpha, beta and gamma penetrating every cell of your blood. A medal for the Chernobyl liquidators.
I'll repost this video here again, because it's not a movie. These are real life scenes and HBO has reproduced them very naturally. Do you remember that scene like just drop it an don't look at the reactor core?
Nobody did that at a gun point. All of them were volunteers who knew that the radioactive condemnation may cover the whole Europe and kill their own families.Obey the CowgodComment

I don't have HBO right now... But honestly, I miss John Oliver. And a few other shows on HBO.

Torrents, no? For example, I'm watching it via a pirate application from Google Play. Yes, from the official Google Play Store. Why? Just because these pirates release something what I need much faster than the copyrights and they give a flying fuck to Putin's censure. E.g. I have a Fox channel in my IPTV packet, but they censure some scenes from Game of Thrones because Fox sucks Putin's dick. Sorry, but I don't want to pay for that shit. I want to see the original version... and thank you the pirates!Obey the CowgodComment

Fantastic show! However, I do wish this was in Russian with English subtitles.
CurrentlySober hit the nail on the head...it's not just the British accents. It's their mannerisms and demeanor which throws things a bit off for me. This is all very very minor and nit-picky if you will. I love it otherwiseComment

And yes I assumed HBO's retelling of the story was accurate. To me that is one of the reasons why it is so scary.
To me one of the saddest (coolest? Most ugh, beautiful?) shots was in the first episode, when everyone is watching the core glowing from a few miles away. They are all happy and things like that. It's shot in slow motion and you're not quite sure what's going on but then you see a woman hair blow in a direction away from where she is looking... then some dust and ash starts falling... and then you know. You *know*. But they keep smiling, and the kids are playing in the ash, and... fuck me that was a scary-assed scene.
And for sure - everyone who worked to contain that disaster are heroes. Their should be metals and honours given to families of everyone who died. Those people saved more than Chernobyl, they saved most of Europe and possibly most of the world too.Comment

It's a hard hitting show certainly showing how brave many were and how in denial the Government was. 3 mile island and Fukushima should warn us that Government's continue with the same deniability.
In the 1983 there were at least 25 experiments going on around that world that could result in an extension event for humans. In 2017 that number was higher than 2500

Is it a series or a documentary, or a one off like bird boxComment

BTW there is a Russian sci-fi show about Chernobyl after the catastrophe. I don't know if it's available in English, but here it is.
1st season in Russia:
2st season in the USA:
Why in the USA? That's because it's a sci-fi show in a Secret Files and Doctor Who style with a time traveling, ghosts, serial maniacs etc. Like they have prevented the catastrophe here and it has happened there (Idaho Falls in 1955 or something like that).
A spoiler: all those kids have got killed. Some twice in their first life and in the alternative future. Oops

Unprofessionalism, lack of knowledge on the highest level caused if not the biggest, then one of the biggest disasters in history of the world.

Unprofessionalism? Yes. A bad design of the station? Yes. Almost absolutely the same situation what happened at the American-made station in Fukushima (there is no ocean in the Ukraine to drop the radioactive shit down). But it gave people a lesson on what they can do and what they can't.Obey the CowgodComment

Thats right.
After this scene, there was no mention of them at all in the story. But last night I watched the last episode and just before the credits, they confirmed that everyone who was watching on that bridge had all died. Fucking wow.
It's a 5 part dramatic mini series.Comment

BTW the movie shows Russians drink vodka almost all the time. And that's absolutely true. First of all, the operation commanders and the members of the killing squad were on stress - you can't just kill a home pet and feel nothing (as the squad member said: "kill the animal quickly and don't let it suffer or I'll kill you"). And the second thing is that vodka really allows your body to get rid of the chemical elements - good or bad ones, just everything. If you've got a radiation dose you must drink and that's not an urban legend or something like that. It really forces your body to turn everything into your urine.Obey the CowgodComment

Can't say anything because I hear it for the first time. The show is very popular here in Russia. It was not shown by the State television because... Putin and the TV channels, controlled by him are envy HBO for it. They think that they had to make it, but they also know that everything that they film is a total shit. The situation is getting worse because everybody here knows it too, and this makes them real mad. But nobody blames CIA for that, so it's definitely a fake news. Everybody knows how and why it happened.
I've seen a "news" broadcast on Putin's TV where some bald clown that looks like my penis said something like: look! look! look! they shown plastic windows in 1986! that's a fake! this makes the whole movie fake too!
