Series Finale: The Promise (Sky 10, 8.30, 5.1) In part four of four, Erin refuses to abandon her quest to find Mohammed’s family, even though it takes her on a hazardous journey into Gaza. Said The Times: “The final episode of Peter Kosminsky’s ambitious series packs a considerable punch. The naive English girl (Claire Foy) on her gap year in Israel continues to find out what became of her grandfather in the closing months of the Mandate, which takes her first to Hebron and later to Gaza. Just as her grandfather witnessed the massacre of Palestinians and watched helplessly while the British abandoned the Arabs to their fate, so she sees how the modern state of Israel defends its borders against the very people whose land they had taken … It is refreshing to see an ambitious drama tackling a subject of such importance.” ✭✭✭✭
