I watched Series 2, but I can't remember what happened to Martin in the end.

Saga shopped him for killing the villain.

S3 got off to a cracking start I thought... nice to see more of the 911 on screen too.

Followed up by the actor throwing a massive strop about the storyline so the start of series 3 had to be rewritten.

Whilst I love her car it does seem a bizarre choice of transport for someone who is meant to be so rational, you'd expect her to have some ancient Saab or Volvo that she keeps using as it is safe and reliable.

I did enjoy the 911 ,about as plausible as a Quattro for wotsisname.

Good colour too.

Are you saying 911s are unsafe and unreliable in comparison to old Saabs and Volvos? scratchchin
Although i've noted it to be quite PC with everyone driving to emergencies quite serenely I'm guessing she needs something quick, I can't really see her in a Saab or Volvo really.

She seems quite proud of it in this new series - when her new partner complimented her excellent taste in sports cars she told him he's not allowed to drive it!

Her choice of the car and dislike of others driving it was covered in S1, but I can't remember the reasoning now.

my OCD wishes she'd stop wrenching the door on that 911 open and shut with such force/disdane. People who slam car doors, grrr.......

Google "911 check strap repair"!

You'd wish even more if it was your motor.

Just watched the first two episodes of S3 on catchup. Excellent start.

It's just so well written, produced and acted.

Lots of interwoven threads to keep you guessing what's going on together with cliffhanger endings. Saga has another foil for her "interesting" questions which are very amusing.

Really looking forward to the rest of it.

I've completely lost the plot,no idea what relevance some of these have to it.
I'll keep watching though.

Agreed, it's the many plot threads (with some being red herrings) that make it compelling.

You do have to concentrate though and this series is sometimes difficult with similar looking characters and dark lighting so I'm often not sure who is who!

Didn't see the twist mentioned above coming (although felt something was not quite right). Thought I'd rewatch episode 2 and all becomes clear. Good stuff.

Now worried they may be overdoing the Saga character flaws (although she does have a lot on her plate). It was better with Martin to take the focus off her more I think.

The over exagerrated thing that she does with her eyes gets irritating - otherwise excellent
