Secrets & Lies

It was ok, I was going to give it a 6, but the ending made it to a 7. The acting is passable, the storyline enough to keep you watching. It's not going to grip you to your seat, but if you have a few hours spare, give it a go. I've seen worse.

Gripping, Twisted and entertaining... All in one package. A young boy is murdered and the guy who finds the body is implicated. After that all hell breaks loose. There is not a single dull moment in the whole series. Nothing is pointless, its been edited perfectly. Every episode has few twists and turns. The characters are well crafted. You will love the young daughter and hate the elder one. The Tenant provides a bit of a comic relief baring his undies. The lead character is perfect. He portrays right mix of emotion, hysteria and empathy. Plot Holes... Well, considering how it wound up at the end, you could find a few things which had loose ends. But nonethless, this is the 3rd Fine Australian show I have seen after Glitch and the Keterring incident. Solid emotional and suspense drama. Go wtahc it.. Its way better than some of the glittering hollywood suff

Wow. Thank you once again up STV for airing this nothing short of a brilliant TV crime drama. It had everything and lacked nothing. This is TV drama at its best. I didn't guess the end and watched hundreds of hours of this genre. An absolute gem.

I'm quite partial to Aussie drama. I like the accent, they're usually a little quirky, less predictable than the standard American or British stuff. The scenery always look great and there's usually a tanned hunk featuring in the storyline. This certainly doesnt disappoint on that score, the lead actor is very easy on the eyes! I think his entire wardrobe consisted of shorts and a bath towel but who's complaining.

The acting was mainly good, particularly the lead actor and the detective. The script was decent enough and moved along at a reasonable pace. It was just about the right length, there wasnt much 'filler'. It kept my interest all the way through. I didn't guess the ending correctly so it was a surprise. All in all its worth a watch.

Okay, I think the title of the review pretty much sums up my thoughts of this show. But I doubt I can get away with only that, so.... Martin Henderson was great. The story was brilliant, the pacing was perfect. And, the ending was phenomenal. Watch this one, and definitely skip the American remake.
