A rambling and totally implausible story wasted on a good cast. Had potential but just becomes a mess with too many twists and relentless hopping about in timeframes. Can't recommend it I'm afraid.

I really tried to like it, but it just became background noise... none of the characters are really likeable. The acting was so so 😕 The two that portrayed the investigators are so not believable at all! They didn't even have to open their mouth to see that they weren't right for the part! The storyline was flimsy and a waste of time.

So boring. Storyline is really pathetic and obvious from the start. Please don't waste your time. The BBC really need to get a grip, and it goes without saying that the way of financing this tosh is so antiquated. However there are many people in Europe who would pay to watch BBC iPlayer, but guess what, they can't! Where is the sense in that?

I really had high hopes for this. A good story line and quality actors, sadly the production is awful and the presentation causes the viewer to become disengaged with the story and characters involved.

The acting was superb! The twists were great. I really liked how it was set to keep the mystery going and there was no predictability. The character build was perfect building up to the reveal in the final episode. I clearly do not understand the negative reviews. A lot of very clever work went into writing and development and complexity of each character. Sam played by Mexine Peake was truly a well crafted character. Very talented acting for such a challenging role. I will be looking for her previous roles and will be watching just to see more of her incredible talent. All actors we perfectly casted and brought so much. Bravo to everyone involved in creating this little series.

I enjoyed this series and can't understand why there are so many negative reviews. It used a common device of starting off with a death and using flashbacks to fill in the backstory. It was unusual in that the deceased wasn't revealed at first. There's a strong message about sexual harassment of women, which seems to have provoked some of the negative reviews, but I didn't find it detracted from the story. If you want a well acted, intriguing story that will keep you engaged then I can recommend Rules of the Game.
