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.

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 🙂!!

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.

Gripping four episode thriller based on a Japanese novel, but set in Scotland. Moody and dark, the main reason for watching this is Kevin McKidd who gives a stellar performance as a troubled police detective whose daughter has gone missing. While the plots has enough twists to avoid being in the paint by numbers school of thriller writing, watch it for McKidd as he gets inside the head of his character, a lowly ranked detective. McKidd's performance masterfully avoids the limitations of his character I.e., the cliche of the passed over disgruntled detective, whose brother has made it to the top of the Force. Intense yet under played, McKiidd turns in a slow burn performance that simply steals the show.
