Yes, really enjoying this. KW is surprisingly good as a gritty small town cop...apart from the odd pronunciation slip now and again!

BTW it's 'Mare' not 'Mayor'.

[RDM]

Yes, got me hooked, as previously said KW is very good in this.

This really is very good and KW is superb. Reminds me of a US version of Happy Valley.

Does it get any better after the first episode? We sat through the first one and determined we had wasted an hour of our lives, as it was so slow going with much preamble and lacking in action.

Yes excellent series so far and all the actors have been very good, her mother seems to have the best lines.

Yep, agreed, the confession at the funeral had us cracked up, as was the child hopping into the room on all fours butt first for some reason!

First episode sets the scene and characters. Every episode gets you more and more involved. Most recent episode (5) is jaw dropping at the end.

I see gongs for KW. She completely owns the prog.

This weeks ep was top notch.

[anonymous-user]

Great show. Just caught up..

[LuS1fer]

Just finished episode 5. Disappointing really.

I thought episode 5 was a “‘sake, didn’t see that coming!”, looking
Forward to the next two episodes

[greygoose]

Really enjoyed this series, excellent characters and acting throughout.

Excellent twist in the tale ending. Will there be anything further in terms of seasons or is that it?
