Any fans of Line of Duty? I just watched this entire two series and finale, made in 2004, by the same writer. Certainly not for the faint hearted, but really gripping.

It's very good but extremely graphic and gory - I fast forwarded through those operating table close ups.

It's amazing how dated the cars and phones look but hospitals never change!

seacliff….I hate the graphic operations and births!! But I hate the juxtaposition of sex right before or after the gory bits!

It does frighten me though, all the mistakes or near mistakes that happen!

Sticking with it though because is by Jed M.

Just binge watched this, and really enjoyed it, Keith Allen, my favourite character played a blinder, mind you felt
he got all the best lines! Must have a dark side as gory bits
didnt get to me, loved it all!

Nany loves shop...just finished watching. I could only watch in small doses!!
You must have a strong stomach ?
I thought ending it the way they did....Cjd story line etc., was really interesting. I mean what could be more terrifying for a surgeon than loosing the skill he/she took so long to acquire? Such a good twist, but no 3rd series to play it out!

Glad that others enjoyed it.

So pleased I found it, after enjoying Line of Duty, I was just looking to see what else Jed had done. I wonder what other great programmes I have missed (so far).

Namsnanny? I really do think I have a dark side, as I
love really gruesome crime novels, the more gory the better, best not to meet me on your own in a dark alley?
