I'm really liking this. Brilliantly acted by pretty much all from a good script with a good story line (if possibly a little far fetched). There's enough of an arc to make it to two or three series too with drugs in the valley, corruption of local officials etc.
Thought the way they shot the MINI scene was very well done - not graphic in the act but enough after to give you chills.

I'm enjoying it - the threads that are being pulled together and all that grey lines stuff...
Plus nice to see Alun Armstrong's son is a chip off the old block (Ashley) and another outing for Tinita Tikarams' brother (only ever saw him in This Life before).
So is the grandson deffo the offspring of the murderous rapist?

Yeah the Ex-con really is a very nasty piece of work.
He's very good. Such a good performance that I wouldn't be surprised if he got attacked in the supermarket by one of those mad old biddies that hits tv soap baddies with their walking sticks.I recall the guy that played Richard Hillman in Corrie saying he was spat at, sworn at, and hit a few times for making Gail's life hell on telly.

Acting is superb. Sarah Lancashire especially.
Her sister Clair and Nevison were two thirds of Rita, Sue and Bob Too.
Various combinations of Costigan, Sarah Lancashire, Siobhan Finneran and Lesley Sharp have a habit of cropping up together in different productions - often by Sally Wainwright.Her sister Clair and Nevison were two thirds of Rita, Sue and Bob Too.
