Juana M Aug 22 The picture painted of British detectives is pretty unfavorable - they run around like chickens, making one bad decision after another. The female cop is certifiable and goes from one hysterical outburst to another. The rookie detective's mother is also nutty. Are we seeing a pattern here? I stuck with it, but it got more and more ridiculous as it approached the denouement. See more janet c May 18 Stale and predictable. Characters wholly unlikable and plot was protracted and confusing. See more Suzie H 01/11/2025 This was awful. The story was just ludicrous. The script terrible. Totally unconvincing, regardless of the actors pretty good performances. See more Sophea P 01/09/2025 The show isn’t like other crime shows where the detectives are geniuses who figure out clues even Sherlock Holmes couldn’t see. The characters are believable to be real people who have messy lives and miss clues like real detectives do. Nina being a wreck because she got dumped is believable. Just because she is a cop doesn’t mean she is required to be strong and independent. Her character shows a realistic vulnerability that anyone would be going through after being dumped in a four year relationship. For anyone who thinks every female character is suppose to be portrayed as strong and not care that they just wasted four years of their lives on a guy, this show is not for you. She asks very real questions that anyone who has been dumped has asked. “How long did they know it wasn’t going to work?” “Did he ever want children?” Those are real questions. The characters are written to be pretty realistic in their problems and meltdowns. It worth the watch as long as you’re not expecting superhero detectives that every other show has. Where the detectives compartmentalize their personal feelings and issues because the case is so important that they shut everything out to focus on the case. The detectives are personally a mess, but they’re still trying to solve the case, with normal missteps along the way. See more Liv G 12/29/2024 The show went on for far too long. Could have been summarised in about 4 episodes. Story was a bit different to other itv/channel 4 dramas. They added in several random romance stories into it, which were unnecessary and honestly very forced. Went on and on about Nina being an older woman. Wow an 8 year age gap between a 30 year old and a 38 year old — absolutely scandalous! Honestly every female character in this show were absolutely bizarre. Genuinely every woman character had a strange annoying quirky personality. Hard to pick between the German woman and Nina as to who was the most annoying and unbearable. The women would add in really unnecessary strange dialogue. Nina had the worst and most unbearable verbal diarrhoea. Only plus point was that the tv show was wrapped up in one season so nobody has to endure a second. See more Nicole B 08/16/2024 Nina’s character is unbearable! See more Read all reviews
