4/5
Faith is well drawn, and Myles embodies her completely. Her Faith is full of colour and life. Her Faith is also warmth and charm, temper and frustration. Go to Full Review

3/5
Myles is hugely watchable, having one of those expressive faces that dominates the screen and holds the attention. Go to Full Review
Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk 07/25/2019
4/5
This opener set a cracking pace, immediately plunging us back into the sense of menace and unease which had so powerfully informed the previous series. Go to Full Review
Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 07/24/2019
3/5
The cheapness is part of the appeal -- along with the impenetrable plot and long, brooding silences. Go to Full Review
Malcolm Hopwood The Post NZ 08/31/2018
Welsh drama is like keeping the ball in the forwards for the first 30 minutes and then slowly releasing it to the backline. By the end of the game you're captivated. Go to Full Review

Kathy L Jun 9 The premise was interesting but the episodes dragged. Too much emphasis on the mood music and dreamy video which puts you to sleep. Very disappointed. See more Andrei D Mar 19 The first episode is so good that the rest of the season struggles to deliver on its promise See more Sarky C 10/26/2024 Eve Myles was spectacular in this. Definitely one of the best series and thrillers I have seen. Everything from the story the acting screenplay and the shots was fantastic. Even the music was absolutely captivating. If you haven't seen it I definitely advise you do See more Robin H 05/28/2022 The first two series were superb and ground breaking, made by the star quality of Eve Myles. However, as so often, the third series can't keep it up. Long pointless shots of her and others staring moodily at the sea or into a wine glass, with nothing happening except a pop song trying to fill the gap. Needs more PLOT and more court room DRAMA. See more 04/28/2022 A well acted gem. Real locations, even the kids in the series we believable and put in great performances. We are USA based and it beat almost anything locally made here. The Critics are entirely correct for once and I have no idea who the members of the public detractors were watching??? See more 04/22/2022 Very disappointed in season 3....really admired the Faith character in the beginning...she was intelligent, loving, fierce and loyal...but in the second and third season she falls for the gangster Steve who has done horrible things and would be a danger to have around for the kids...not smart or indicative of a good mother ! Would have been more palatable if she reconciled with her husband...at least if she forgave him for deeds he done (which didn't seem much worse than Steve) her children would be less traumatized...lost all respect for her...not watching the final episodes of Season 3.
