This is a UKB crime drama developed for English languague broadcast TV; there are issues, but I found it well paced and very watchable.
I'm always pleased to see a director post here. The commissioning editor and crew can be proud of this work. There are some well drawn characters, a good plot arc, a touch of intrigue, and some fine scene setting and camera work. Well done.
More knowledgeable folk have been critical here about authenticity. I understand, but this is entertainment. I think the crew made a reasonable effort to offer a local perspective on 'the cradle of civilisation' to their English viewers.
I hope they get funding for another series. If so, I'll be watching.
