Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) 04/28/2023
It’s the 1970s, so loveless affairs, hefty jumpers and tremendously bad haircuts abound and there’s really not much not to like. Go to Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) 04/28/2023
4/5
It is a classy series, eschewing the cheap thrills of so many TV dramas and recreating the 1970s without going overboard on the period details of that style-challenged era. Go to Full Review Helen Hawkins The Arts Desk 05/15/2023
3/5
If you like puzzle-policiers where a gory murder draws you into a protracted game of cat and mouse, this set will see you through nights when the TV schedules don't appeal. Go to Full Review Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 05/12/2023
4/5
One of the pleasures of this 1970s whodunnit is the sheer level of detail in the props and furnishings. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen G @RT76499974 02/08/2025 If anything the second season is an improvement on the very solid first, partly because a supporting role, the second detective, changes from what had been the original, annoying character to a more engaging, sympathetic one. The series remains low-key and British stiff upper lip in terms of how the lead detective goes about his work. But that's not really a criticism: Some fine acting and good stories made my wife and me retain strong interest.
