Sorry but I didn't like it. Too dark, miserable and depressing.

I just found it boring

 

[Bobby Chariot]

I've watched 2 episodes, it's getting messy but a good watch & funny, dark humour wise.
The rookie cop will probably end up twice as hard as Chris is at this rate
Steep learning curve of inner city depravity for her.

 

[laughing]

Only watched the first episode, won't be watching any more.

The wife's love interest is rather tasty. Have not seen him on tv for a while

 

[Wifo1976]

Third episode in and it’s getting good! I wasn’t that impressed after the first one but it’s ramped up these last two eps! Like seeing all the Liverpool sights too as it’s local to me.

I've also just watched episode 3... its definitely worth sticking with as I was a bit underwhelmed after episode 1....

Throughout the first episode I kept thinking Martin looked like a much older Liam Payne

 

[Scragbags]

We finished ep1 last night and I can swear like a good'un but every other word of the dialogue was duck or bleeping and it really threw me off

 

[sleepingsatellite]

checked out the first ep during a random spot of insomnia last night. he has no hotness for me.

 

[Miss Havisham]

Is this supposed to be Liverpool? The stereotyped characters are appalling.
Wtf

 

[Maid22]

Just finished episode 3, liking it!!

 

[nbt]

Just finished it. Seemed to end quite quickly really but I still enjoyed it.

Would welcome a second series but I don’t think it’s needed.

He's in Trigger Point too!

I’ve just watched the first episodes. I must say as a Scouser I think Martin Freeman‘s accent is absolutely spot on. I don’t think he could’ve got it anymore perfect.
It also has shades of the old police drama that was also set in Liverpool called Liverpool one with Samantha Janus and Mark Womack
I will say the typical stereotypes are appalling though

 

[Barbs89]

I’ve just finished series 2 and loved it

 

[Sea]

Was series 1 out 2022?! I was certain it was last year.
On the final episode. The series isnso grim and nail biting but can't stop watching it

 

[Lazarus]

Absolutely gripping acting in both series.
I live in Liverpool, I don’t see these characters as ‘typical stereotypes’ like many seemed to. It’s set on a true story, and these kind of people operate in most cities - lord knows there’s plenty of less than savoury people in Liverpool. Why so sensitive about it?

 

[CrackingOwlSanctuary]

As an aside did anyone watch the Panorama about the Huyton Firm going down for attempted murder on the back of the police hacking their encrypted chats, chilling stuff.

 

[Moley1]

Watched it all now. Luke others I struggled with it at first and found it very dark, but there is also a level of dark humour in it that added another dimension and although it was too neatly tied up at the end I would recommend it to anyone who likes gritty police/social dramas.
