Well, I expected better from the BBC.
How bad can the acting be?
Did anyone else waste an hour, hoping it could improve?

Agreed Auntieflo, not worthy of Juliet Stevenson. How could she have been taken in by those two creeps ?Nothing like police officers.

Silly gruesome rubbish. Won't be watching any more, what a disappointment.

Gin Mon 31-Jul-23 22:22:45

What a farce, the two coppers were like characters out of ‘Room Number Nine’ but less believable or well acted

Staceyann Mon 31-Jul-23 22:30:45

Gruesome and gratuitous. Bleugh!

Oldbat1 Mon 31-Jul-23 22:32:40

Not my type of viewing. I went to see to the dogs and even dh had given up by the time i had finished with the dogs.

Started a thread at the same time Auntieflo.
Terrible!

The tv critic in our newspaper said enough about this gruesome sounding programme to convince me it wasn’t worth watching.
Seems he was right!

HousePlantQueen Mon 31-Jul-23 22:45:26

Well I enjoyed it.

I thought it was awful.

BlueBelle Tue 01-Aug-23 03:58:41

I managed the first five minutes then turned over
Didn’t look ‘for me’

Gingster Tue 01-Aug-23 07:37:39

Reviews say ‘stick with it’. Not sure if I can 😵‍💫

Juliet Stevenson must need the money to put her name to such a poor script and even worse acting from some of the cast.
I could tell/see that they weren’t policeman from the moment they walked through the door.

Fell asleep; seems to have been a lucky escape.

NannyJan53 Tue 01-Aug-23 07:55:17

Well, that was an hour of my life wasted! It was so obvious they were not Police Officers. They didn't even look at the warrant card.

GrannyGravy13 Tue 01-Aug-23 08:17:09

It can only get better, but I am not convinced.

Curlywhirly Tue 01-Aug-23 08:34:06

I thought it was dire - it was obvious from the outset that the 2 detectives were imposters and so much of the story was just ridiculous. Despite this, I will probably watch the following episodes!

Farzanah Tue 01-Aug-23 08:49:42

When the two “policeman” arrived like two stooges I thought this was a black comedy and I hadn’t read the preview properly. Weird or what?

coco12 Tue 01-Aug-23 09:13:35

Like you said an hour wasted, won't bother with any more. I thought the acting was wooden

Freya5 Tue 01-Aug-23 09:20:58

The only thing the beeb does well nowadays, their wildlife programmes.

henetha Tue 01-Aug-23 09:36:55

It made me feel uncomfortable, so I switched over to Chris Packham instead.

BigBertha1 Tue 01-Aug-23 09:44:05

Not for me I enjoy suspense but not torture. I'm out.

Bella23 Tue 01-Aug-23 09:51:32

I thought is was dire. We kept watching to see if it would get better but it got more farcical. Juliet Stevenson must be in need of some cash to take part in it. Perhaps the BBC were using her to dupe us all.

Maya1 Tue 01-Aug-23 10:04:03

I have recorded it so not seen it yet. I thought it might be worth a watch as it's based on Mo Hayder books.

Kate1949 Tue 01-Aug-23 10:15:35

Awful. The minute Juliet let those men in, my husband said 'They're not police officers'.
