Having just finished series 3, I wanted to update my review. Each season got better than the one before, and although each series closed with unsatisfactory criminal conclusions, it became apparent to me that the story was unfolding on a three season arch. Fantastic storytelling, great performances (I'm always appreciative of Keeley Hawes) and 9 (superb) out of 10 episodes,, I give the whole series an 8 out of 10, and hope a rumoured Series 4 comes late 2016 or 2017.

I just finished the 1st of 4 seasons of this series which takes a dark look at British police work, which I found quite disturbing, for some reason. It portrays constables making choices based on the volume of paperwork it would generate rather than whether it would serve justice; Inspectors falsely lauded but generating results by manipulating stats, Commanders ordering their officers to falsify their reports to cover up fatal mistakes. The drama comes when a few principled and relentless officers, and an anti-corruption division, are thrown into the mix. Can they make a difference, right wrongs and hold the force accountable for justice? It doesn't look good... I gave this an 8 (great) out of 10.
