I thought this looked promising with a strong cast, and from the outset it had the look of a classy production. The problem? The dialogue! For a start there was too much of it. Too much cheesy, too much stating the obvious, too much stilted...ever heard of inference or the intelligence of the audience? Some of the dialogue just bordered on the bizarre. At times I thought the acting (even of those I know to be good from other series) was appalling, but it is amazing how very poor dialogue makes the performance seem poor. I love British crime dramas. You do it very well. This one is just a sad offering in comparison to what you have given us before. Find a new writer!
