Having an actress as a host results in acting. Acting like she's driving. The steering wheel is locked, and the ignition obviously off. The wheel never moves a millimetre.
She never looks at the road, and she is too far from the steering wheel. Her arms are usually stretched out, which would make it hard to steer - if the wheel wasn't locked that is.
Also, I've watched 7 episodes now, and she's wearing the exact same clothes in every episode. Also wearing the same clothes in the slow motion opening scenes. Obviously, her scenes were filmed for the entire season all in one go.
They need to lose the slow motion scenes. They're silly. And stop With the drone shots. They're overdone. There's almost no useful video in this show, other than when the police or witnesses talk. The host offers very little useful input to the show.
Also, they mix in text on the screen for some facts, which can be missed if you look away. And the silly keyboard sounds are, well, silly.
If you press pause when the outside of the Land Rover is shown driving, you can see it's a man with large hands driving.
If they cut out all the fluff, slow motion scenes, and drone scenes, they could get the show down to 10 minutes.
There's really very little point pretending she's driving around these villages, and even if she actually was, why?
