Why do these dramas always have a policeman/woman who does things they shouldn't. I find it really annoying.
It sends out a message that our police service can't be trusted to obey the rules!!!

I agree. She was wading through high floodwater, trying to break down a door with her shoulder with another female officer, I gave up on it before the end.

I didn’t bother to start watching it after reading the description of the plot 🤦🏼‍♀️

I thought it was ridiculous after the pregnant PC had waded waist-high into the water she then returned to the car to discuss with colleagues their next move. She would have soaked the car and should have been sent home to dry out as well as being medically examined as she was 7 months pregnant.

Aside from the implausibility aspect I really enjoyed it, thought it was gripping.

I will certainly watch the next episode.

Just seen your message Calendargirl. Thank you.

We recorded it and gave it a go tonight and we switched off half way through. Boring.

It's watchable, but totally improbable! The sudden appearance of the French woman was rather unbelievable.

I agree Clawdy and a junior PC would not be allowed to run around as she wishes because I do not think she is on maternity leave yet.

It's not bad so far,but I am finding the PC a bit lacking in personality.

Well I stuck with it till the last episode and am none the wiser!
