Sandra W @TooMuch136 Aug 11, 2025 I’m addicted to this show and watched through S. 27 on BritBox. Very frustrated they aren’t showing S. 28 in the U.S.! See more Paul T @RT04152652 Aug 9, 2025 Absolutely love this show, been watching it for ages, great cast and great stories, easy one of my favourite shows See more Tero H @Tero83 May 31, 2025 Still the show is great after many seasons that I loved and very happy to see Emilia Fox as leading role. Other cast over the years are also great. See more Bert B @RT78255305 Feb 7, 2025 Always a bit silly, this has now become 'ridiculous' with a growing love interest that finally seems to have eclipsed any thin implausible plot that may have been going on. At the end I actually expected some sort of La La Land song and dance routine in the cgi'd Trafalgar square scene. Yuk. See more Tracy A @RT81221580 Feb 5, 2025 The new additions to the cast this season have brought so much to the show. Best 'team' in a long time. Absolutely loving it! See more Ben W @Username618 Feb 3, 2025 No option to delete my review. Put the stars in the middle. sorry. Today was Saturday 14th June 2025ce. See more Read all reviews
