We recorded it and finished watching it last night.
My feeling was they could have condensed it all down to about three episodes. There was so much naval gazing, staring, strange camera angles from above, weird, contorted poses from Faith - and yes, the clawing at the hair got a bit much too. OH kept saying "She's going to kick her shoes off any minute now," and she did. All this "nothing much going on other than deep anguish" was accompanied to music.
The plot was slightly confusing too - so many baddies and who was doing what to whom and where exactly did Evan get involved? Much of the dialogue was lost because of poor delivery. Thank goodness for re-wind!
Evan bounced back in the end (or did he?) looking very clean cut, relaxed and like a big smiley James Martin. Big time crook/ex con Steve Baldini was definitely punching above his weight too in imagining he and Faith were compatible, but he did provide support and a lovely solid shoulder to lean on. I imagine he'd have been 'rewarded' for his efforts in the closing minutes if the silly, foolish husband hadn't shown up. There was no joy or relief on Faith's face, was there, when she saw Evan grinning in the darkness like he'd just got back from a fortnight in Tenerife.
I am not sure how series two of KF will pan out now the crooks and their deeds are out in the open. The local police in that area will need serious reinforcement given the number of serious crooks and gangs in the neighbourhood, as well as bent officers at the local nick! All two constables did EVERYTHING from searches, arrests, interviews, reception work, crime scene investigation, guard duty and police car driving. The BIL of a murder suspect would have been taken off the case, surely? Quite a bit of the drama didn't ring true.
It was enjoyable, but annoying at the same time, imo.
