Police series written by Paul Abbott (Shameless). Looks alright so far, started with somebody's head being run over by a bus hehe , as you do.

Liking it, disappointed the chief didn't drop a huge log in the loo scene but that's just me. It's Shameless with cops

Yeah, we enjoyed it, all very weird at times but quite funny in places too. Will be watching again.

I don't usually watch anything connected with comedy(accept the news)but, as it was a bit of both, decided to give it a go - am glad I did!

Dear All,

watched this. Agree with others a hit.

A couple of cavils but enough to make the difference betwixt good & great.
It's not quite sure on which side of the comedy/drama line it wishes to be, nor how robust.
I think it needs to be slightly more consistent in tone. The head splatting and fanny deodorizing were funny/gross but a little out of place with the rest,

regards,
Jet

What's the writer "on" ? A Chinese woman is killed in a car crash and she is found to have gastric problems due to excess amounts of dog sperm in her stomach. I mean, to be honest, I p*ssed myself laughing, but how the hell do they think these things up?

A very interesting first episode, and worth catching again.

Haven't watched it yet but it appears to be ticking a few boxes going by the comments here.

Never missed one. So I suppose I should have expected that one.

The 'spa session' made me laugh (£20 for a happy ending - 'Brezhnev') but, like 'Shameless' the character count is climbing (as in there are so many distinct characters with all manner of flaws on show, all the time).

How many takes would they have done with the Audi scene? Ouch...

I know we're supposed to be critical of lazy stereotyping, but I really liked the two lezzer police snipers. Made me laugh out loud.
