The Field of Blood

Paddy Meehan lands a job as a journalist, and quickly gets entangled in a murder. In a man's world, she battles against sexism and misogyny.

It's a real shame that this wasn't further developed, this show definitely had some mileage. The first episode, The Field of Blood, was terrific, it has so much content. The second two parter isn't the same standard I think, but it's still very good, it was great to see the show return.

Jayd Johnson is excellent throughout as Paddy, I am stunned that she hasn't had a prolific career since, I think she's excellent.

There was some terrific acting, David Morrissey and Peter Capaldi in particular were terrific. I also really liked Bronagh Gallagher as Paddy's mum.

It's very well produced, it looks marvellous, they really capture the visuals of the 1980's, and okay some cracking music too.

I wish there were more if them, 8/10.
