    this show was objectively bad. while british police shows are some of my favorite things to zone out to, and be entertained by, this show with all it's dependence on red herrings didn't play fair to the whole point of crime fiction, and was a waste of time spent

    Better at atmospherics than plot specifics, Loch Ness is prone to red herrings and subplots tend to muddy the waters, delaying a melodramatic denouement that is only slightly more credible than the existence of a prehistoric sea beast. [26 Jun - 9 Jul 2017, p.13]

    The peel-the-onion format here is familiar by now, but Stephen Brady’s script and a group of fine performances keep it intriguing, nonetheless. A fine diversion for summer evenings.

    In truth, the mystery is somewhat overplotted and there are scattered moments when we wouldn’t fully believe certain character decisions, but we’re already too hooked on wanting to know who is responsible for the deaths of a music teacher, a socially awkward high school kid, and two of his classmates, not to mention a man anchored to the floor of the loch with a curling stone.
