Six Four

It's one of those series to watch to pass the time..it's not too bad,but sadly it's not too memorable either. Acting by the main actor, Kevin McKid I thought, was good - moody, and brooding but unfortunately I felt Vinette Robinson was overacting - I understand she was supposed to be angry and stressed but she came out unlikeable...i didn't enjoy watching the initial scenes with her in it..she only became likeable at the end.

The story line was interesting- juxtaposing a recent incident to a similar one from long ago, with the involvement of political figures in it. The back story of Scotland's quest for independence was also highlighted in this series but it's not something I understand much of, so that bit was lost on me.

Was an ok drama only 4 episodes so not to drawn out. The story just wasn't the best. Wouldn't say it was nail biting stuff. Not sure the end was the outcome I would have wanted. But did expect that it would be the outcome. Maybe leaving it open so that they can continue and have another series. I probably would watch another series of it. There probably would be enough to have another one. Liked the actors in the drama nice to watch something set in Scotland with nice Scottish accents. It's nice to see places that you can recognise in a drama. James cosmos is always good as is Kevin Mckidd. Always like to watch a Scottish drama x.

Well I thought that it seemed a strong cast but oh dear, oh dear! What induced Kevin McKidd and James Cosmo to take part in this mish mash? The plot is so convoluted that I don't think the cast even understood it. The sub plot of Kevin's missing daughter was utterly irrelevant and completely misleading. Then there was the dishonest senior cop. Or was he? Then another local copper turned up with an axe to grind. With me so far because I'm not! It just seems to be a rewrite of. Then it was all about Scottish independence and how the terrible English government security services were interfering. Of course there were 2 characters who may or may not have been something important. To me, it's just a very poor rewrite of "Scotch on the Rocks".

British Miniseries review: Six Four streaming on BBC Player ( U will need to subscribe to it as an add-on to ur prime video subscription)

This four part British Miniseries follows the lives of 2 police officers ( husband- wife) as they try to get to the bottom of their teenage daughters sudden disappearance. Is this case related in some way to a similar disappearance that happened 16 yrs ago. As the 2 officers start investigating, a lot of dirty secrets of the rich and powerful stumble out of the closet.

Will the truth ever come out & justice be served?

Set in Edinburgh & Glasgow, cinematography is great , the beautiful locales have been showcased wonderfully!!

Coming to the plot, it is slow to start off with, u also tend to question the purpose of a few subplots without any consequence that tend to lead u astray from the main plot . However it ends well with "Poetic Justice" being served eventually.

Based on a Japanese Novel , Six Four is a decent investigative crime thriller with Kevin McKidd ,James Cosmo & Richard Coyle essaying noteworthy performances. Tobby Stevens ( Bond villain in Die Another Day) is unfortunately wasted in a two minute role !!

Not the most original story, however the dark undertones in the plot along with some decent twists & turns will give u a satisfied feeling in the end !! You can binge watch it in a day as it has 4 episodes with each episode having a runtime of around 45 mins !!

Going with 3/5 for this one.. Adios 🙂!!

I love British cop series. This is not one of the best I have seen, although it certainly maintains the tension until the end. The majority of the series is filmed in Scotland. The photography and landscapes are wonderful!

This one is about cold cases, dealing with a case for a missing girl called Julie Mackie, from 16 years ago. I would have used Scottish folk music, the soundtrack is a bit strange and sometimes doesn't fit with the scenes. Although I noticed it, it didn't bother me too much.

The story is exciting from the beginning, although as it progresses it becomes predictable, with several unexpected surprises as well. Well, I have mixed feelings about this series, since it could have been better by changing two important things, more passion in the actors and a story with more strength, I mean roughness and violence, the topic asks for it!

I also think that a second season can be made as some questions have been left unanswered. It felt as if four episodes were quite short and the plot could have been extended further. Although some actors may be quite distant, the series seems quite realistic to me, nothing exaggeratedly acted.

In short, I definitely recommend it, it is entertaining and has very good moments. Without forgetting to mention again the magnificent Scottish landscapes.
