Clone is a British television drama series produced by the BBC which premiered in 2008 on BBC Three. It is a thought-provoking and creative sci-fi show that explores the potential and consequences of human cloning. The story follows the life of Victor Blenkinsop, a wealthy businessman who faces a life-threatening disease. Refusing to accept his fate, Victor turns to cloning technology and creates a replica of himself. This clone looks, talks, and behaves exactly like him and they coexist, each struggling to find their own identity in the world. However, Victor's duplicity gradually becomes more complicated and the story takes a darker turn.

The show is filled with interesting characters, each with their own story and agendas. The main cast is led by the brilliant Jonathan Pryce as Victor Blenkinsop, who brilliantly portrays the conflict of an aging man who seeks to find immortality. Mark Gatiss plays his loyal secretary, and Stuart McLoughlin plays the clone, who has to come to terms with his identity and purpose.

The gorgeous Fiona Glascott plays Victor's wife, who is initially unaware of his cloning project but ultimately becomes caught up in the ethical and moral implications of Victor's actions. The interactions between the characters create an intense and dramatic atmosphere, where the tension becomes palpable as the story progresses.

Aside from the compelling characters, the cinematography of the show is top-notch. Every scene is beautifully shot, and the production design is immaculate. The use of special effects to create the clone's visual is also impressive and a real highlight of the show.

Clone raises many ethical questions regarding cloning and identity, and each episode is thought-provoking; each storyline tackles a different moral issue inherent in human cloning technology. The show is incredibly well-written and the compelling narrative maintains the audience's interest throughout the six-episode run.

Overall, Clone is a riveting, intelligent series that will grab your attention from the very start. The brilliant acting, thought-provoking storylines, and stunning cinematography all come together to create a unique and unforgettable viewing experience.

While it has flown under the radar for many, Clone is an exceptional show, worthy of more attention and recognition than it received when it was first released. It will leave you questioning what it means to be human and the choices we make.
