Political and Crime thriller Bodyguard is supposed to be a limited series and the ending is satisfying as well.Halfway through the show troubled War veteran David Budd ( played by Game of Thrones alum Richard Madden) fails to protect Julia Montague (played by English actress Keeley Hawes) who dies in a bombing.

In the showpiece, final episode, Budd cracks down the murder mystery, become a hero in eyes of many, and his relationship with estranged wife seems rejuvenated. Happy ending, right? It does not necessarily feel like the need to continue the story in second season.
