Very good the first two programmes, a painful watch in parts.

Is it me or was it really gruesome? I had to look away quite a few times.

One of my granddaughters has a degree in film and theatre make up. When she was working at Pinewood studios she would often send me photos of some really gruesome looking prosthetics and it would make me laugh that the back seat of her car often had bags of false boobs, buttocks and other body parts plonked alongside her shopping.

I've watched the series for years, but have to take it with a pinch of salt.
As a medical family we think it's about as far fetched as possible. But easy viewing. However, I shall not be watching the new series as it's gone to another level of rubbish-ness! grin

I doubt many forensic pathologists can watch this c**p. They contaminate every murder scene they attend.

Nor forensic scientists!
Or they sit and criticise all the way through ๐Ÿ˜€

The dynamic duo undertake any task, nothing is beyond their expertise, science, pathology or detective work, the trickier the better, with a bit of sex thrown in!

I thought the old boy was drugged and pushed into water? Then he appeared dry and ready to kill the intruder. How did he get home?

All totally unrealistic obviously folks!!!!! but its not a documentary! I love Nikki and Jack. Love the new Kitty. Isnt she great. Love the integrity of it all. But i do utterly hate the violence and torture that has crept in...and this new series kicked off with unbearable scenes of poor Ben being targeted and teased. Wish we could just do the dead bodies. But it raised lots good points about ageism and abuse of elderly. Am hoping Ben got off lightly as he was under the influence if drugs, had cincusiion snd was half drowned before he put yhe stske in that b******ds heart!!!
