With dramas that you get on channel 4 and channel 5 you might find 1 out of 5 is actually worth watching, this was worth watching and more. This is a spoiler free review but I would think that most people will have the same 'inkling' that I did on episode 1.

There might be some obviousness about the series but the acting and script more than make up for it.

There are some wonderful scenery, and it goes to show how much of a beautiful country Wales can be.

One thing that I thought was very well done is how many of us, if not all of us tend to be wearing rose tinted glasses when we try and remember what we were like and how we behaved when we were teenagers.

Overall this was an excellent drama with an outstanding story portrayed by actors at the top of their game.

It might even make me forget that it was Ramsay Bolton that was on the screen.

The script, the characters and the acting is so well delivered in this TV series. With a few well known faces delivering very good performances its definitely a good series to watch.

There are a lot of series based around very similar, and almost predictable storylines that struggle to keep you interested.

This is not one of those, with a very clever storyline, feeding the view little nuggets of information through the episodes, it keeps you hooked until the very last episode.

An avid viewer will likely put all the pieces together, and guess who did it. But it's not until the final episode when you finally discover exactly what happened.

It's easy to watch, not overly complex, and the character development all come together to deliver a very watchable series.

This was a decent watch. Reminded me of UK series from 4 years ago when they were "real thrillers". Iwan Rheon who played the frightening Ramsay Bolton in Game of thrones and Misfits comes off a bit short tho that's how he was written. And ( can't remember the actress's name) but Becky from utopia does well. The rest are all good. I liked it but didn't love it! Does keep you guessing tho and is better than most all the newer series I've watched that have come out lately. I just wish they'd made Iwan more menacing like he has been in other things but it's a decent watch with just 6 episodes. Give it a go.

Once you start watching it you can't stop, you're almost holding your breath! Actors are absolutely amazing, spot on!

I have three daughters and as I watch this this is exactly how it would go, everyone in the show portrays the heartbreak, the fear and the torment as if it were a real part of their lives, very well acted very well done.

You will not waste your time watching this, and I always love when they film absolutely beautiful, and I don't think I've ever seen a show with any one of these individual actors in it that I didn't like, they never let you down, their faces are what draw you in, because you know they're great actors but they're acting keeps you watching!

Wow this was good.

Joanna Scanlon and Alexander Roach both starred in the brilliant No Offence and are both excellent here too.

The story is about a mother who's daughter was murdered by a local boy but the body was never found. The murderer played by Iwan Reon has never been able to recall what he did with the body but despite this he is granted parole.

What follows is fascinating look at a mothers love and devotion and how it affects everyone around her and the journalist who moved away after the murder of her friend coming back to write a story about the murder.

There a twists and turns aplenty and a few subplots that are tied up nicely and some red herrings that Line Of Duty would be proud of but it's the strength of acting not just from its stars but a strong supporting cast that kept me watching and guessing. (I actually guessed right but won't spoil it for anyone here)

Filmed in both Welsh and English (The Light In The Hall) this is a really strong thriller right up there with the best of British TV.

Highly recommended.
