Suspect

Down on his luck Detective Danny Frater attends the mortuary to see a young woman, in a tragic twist the young woman is known to him.

I thought the first episode showed a little promise, it was intriguing premise, it boasted a first rate cast, and offered a different setup, 8 twenty five minute episodes, on paper, this should have been great.

Sadly, it just isn't that good, so much potential, but it's repetitive, it's a little dull, and it really is hampered by the restrictions that were clearly in practice at the time.

Episodes one through to seven follow pretty much the same format, chat, accusation, link to the next person of interest, the finale tries to offer something different, for me, it didn't work.

Some decent acting, Nesbitt is always good value, Sacha Dhawan and Richard E. Grant are both good, but their efforts feel wasted. Not one single character, with maybe the exception of Susannah, is likeable or easy to relate to, most of them are loathsome.

I wish I could come up with more positives, I really did want to like this, I just found it so dull.

5/10.
