Review of Bang

Bang (2017– )
6/10
Starts well then gets more and more ludicrous

Warning: Spoilers
I'm a fan of previous Welsh TV series, having a Welsh mother helps, and the fact that this got a BAFTA looked attractive, but I cannot recommend it for sensible viewers. The focus is on one character, a whimpy, gutless, brother to our heroine the cop. He gets given a gun, used in a muder, to hide and through it he goes from small time thief to dangerous wannabe thug. Apparently this gun is so important to the story that the cops keep reminding themselves that they need to find it. Finding the killer seems secondary. We get a surprise ending for one character which makes the first episodes about her seem senseless. I won't say more. We have a cop handing over a gun to criminals instead of shooting them. I know it's the U.K. and cops don't shoot people. There's too many whacky scenarios like this, and if you suspend logic, disbelief, reason, you might enjoy it.
