Season 1 Review:
At times, it seems to take itself a bit too seriously – there are few lighter moments, no laughs or sarcasm between friends, family or co-workers, nothing to relieve the sombreness – but, overall (especially, as I’ve said, if we ignore the club singing scenes), it works.

Season 2 Review:
Dunbar is definitely the best thing in this but it’s a shame he has to be so dour in his leather blouson jacket and can’t bring any of the naturalistic wit and bouncy one-liners to Alex Ridley, in the way he brought them to Superintendent Ted Hastings in Line of Duty. .... The plot wasn’t bad, mainly because of the intrigue involving Tasha (Chloe Harris).

Season 1 Review:
You can play along with cliché bingo at home. That one case he never solved? Tick. Inexplicable extracurricular hobby for a detective? Tick. Bafflingly Scandinavian interior design? Tick. Individually, none of these things are unpleasant. As with anything that becomes trite, the process of that overuse inevitably begins with a kernel of quality.
