The Hour is one of the most perfect shows I have ever seen so this probably won't be very drastic. But I'll try!
I'd cut down a bit on the different plots going on. There was the character stuff, the starting-a-news-show stuff, the revolts in Egypt AND the whole government conspiracy thing. I actually would have been perfectly happy just watching a show about a bunch of idealistic professionals trying to make a new kind of news program, so I guess maybe I'd cut the whole conspiracy. It got kind of confusing anyway.
We would then have some time to spend on more Lix Storm, more Marnie and Marnie/Bel scenes, more Hector/Freddie being grudging friends of a kind, etc. :)
