Trigger Point

Very cheesy with occasional moments of genuine tension but there ends up being so many moments where you end up saying to yourself "really ?" . Disappointing.

The same bugbear as usual unfortunately - an enormous amount of money spent on this series, but you still cannot hear all the dialogue, people mutter without moving their lips. Very frustrating to anyone with even a slight hearing impairment. This can easily be fixed, but tv production companies seem to be unable to understand how to record spoken sound properly. I watched a 1950s film on tv earlier and could every word clear as a bell. Just fix it!

I do not understand all the negative comments here. Maybe if you work for a bomb squad this is not realistic but I thought right from the very first episode, this was great action tv. I did suspect who the person was but then, you are not sure. Great actors, real fast pace drama. Loved it.

If this was a Monty Python sketch the end of season 2, episode 2 would be the point when someone would run onto the set and say 'Stop that, it's silly!'.

If I were an 11 year old schoolboy I would enjoy this, unfortunately I haven't been an 11 year old for many years. If you like explosions this is the show for you, if you are looking for anything interesting between the explosions avoid. The actors give strange performances, perhaps they know what they are saying is rubbish. None of the weaknesses of season one have been fixed.

It's sad and worrying that ITV thinks this one of their flagship shows. We have been through a golden age for TV but for free to air viewers this show is proof that it's over.

I don't know about you but I've watched a whole shedload of UK based police dramas and once you learn pretty much anything about how the police have to obey rules, and that there's a methodology to police work, then you get a sense of when something is well written, even though it may be unrealistic.

But this...this.. is just unbelievable in almost every respect.

Countless times it sacrifices any sort of realism for cheap thrills and although I watched it until the end, then that was more because I was laughing at it rather than admiring it.

If you're looking for a reasonably well acted drama but with a mediocre script and an absurd sense of "turn it up to 11" plot where you need constant stimulation then this is for you.

4/10 is about right since it held my attention enough to watch until the end, but it's below average for this sort of production.
