Also...Thandie Newton...

Let's hope she doesn't get killed off early!

So.. whats this programme about! might have to give it a watch!

Probably one of the best written british cop shows in recent years.
They had a habit of excellent cliff hangers at the end of each episodes. Real "OMG did that just happen" moments.

Its all about AC12, which is a police anti corruption unit.

Excellent show, watch it from the beginning and avoid ALL spoilers if you can.

They're showing the previous serious quite late on BBC1 at the moment, episodes 3 and 4 tonight.

Same here. I just hope in doesn't descend into high farce in the last episode as did the previous series.

[Laurel Green]

Cor blimey, off to a good start!

[wjb]

And we're off

[maniac886]

Brilliant start to the new series!

[K12beano]

Good twists at the end there!!!

[Spanna]

What. Just. Happened.

I'm so glad this is back! Can't wait to see how that final scene unfolds.

[Armitage.Shanks]

Not convinced yet. Some actors are a tad wooden.

Claudia Jessie who plays Jodie is rather nice.

[Mojooo]

Shows like this are defined by how they end rather than the start and middle IMO. Its easy to write an exciting story but I've seen so many fail at the end.

Die hard fan here, never missed an episode and my god it's good to have it back.

An excellent return.

O/T but I think Jason Watkins is superb in everything he does, expecially The Lost Honour of Christopher Jefferies - great to watch if you haven't seen it.

Agreed on CJ - excellent in 'Inside No9' recently too.

Unusual behaviour for a forensic techy? So many loose threads in just one episode...

Although I'm already missing 'Dot' and the undercurrent of sleaze.

err....did no-one else think this was totally over the top??

Had it been realistic it would have been a much shorter episode.

“Police? We’ve just seen a young woman kidnapped by a man in a balaclava driving a Mk5 Golf”

“Civil matter sir.” <click…brrr>



p.s. The last series required some massive suspension of disbelief.... the Range Rover driving in circles for 10 minutes being one example.
