The first episode of the first series was too violent for me, but thought I'd give this new series a chance, but again too violent, and I agree about the mumbling. I give up with it.

We both loved it, no problem with the sound, from any of the cast, or the lighting. Having read a lot of the books the violence was not unexpected, I’ve seen worse and there is a warning beforehand.
It’s fiction, we’ll continue to watch each week.

Much too violent for me, kept looking away at tgecreLkybgory bits, really horrible scenes, so missed a lot. You couldn't get anything worse to write about, I've had enough of this gratuous violence, now we are in the dark underworld of snuff porn. . Like the main character and I couldn't make out what the woman in question said, she mumbles in everything, I've got very good hearing and just guessed. Hope next weeks episode is not so violent.

It was violent and quite far fetched but we did enjoy it if that's the word.

I wasn’t keen on the pilot episode when it was shown, but thought this one was better, although yes, violent.

I have the sub titles on, so didn’t notice the sound quality.

Yes, I'm finding there's more than enough violence in my real world without resorting to it for entertainment. The other irrigation I have is that everything is so dark. No one ever seems to put lights on either in workplace or home. It may be for added atmosphere but I simply find it frustrating.

I had to turn over after the first 15 minutes. I don't want to spoil it for others but I thought it was horribly violent; within minutes we were subjected to a hanging with auto erotic overtones, a snuff video of a woman having her throat cut and a woman walking her dog finding a severed hand on a clifftop. I decided it was gratuitously offensive and violent and I won't be watching any other episodes. Please come back soon Vera !!!

I have recorded it but not watched yet so can't give you an opinion on the sound. However, since using my hearing aid linked to the TV I've had no trouble with sound at all and can hear speech crystal clear. I will get back to you when I've watched to say whether I notice these issues you mention.

Is it just me or was the sound really bad on this programme.
Please don't accuse me of racism, byt the female person of colour was dreadful, I couldn't tell a word she was saying.
Another problem is that the music is too loud.
