    The quality continues into the second episode.

    The team are dealing with a bad batch of drugs that are doing the rounds, causing severe injury to people. The McIntyres are quick to cover their tracks, and ensure The Police don't link the drugs back to them.

    Blue Lights is proving to be one of the strongest dramas of the year, the second episode was even better than the first, definitely gritty and intense, the main story was excellent, each of the characters had a part to play.

    Every character has an impressive story, Grace is struggling to switch from her role as a social worker to her current job, Tommy can't shoot, and seems to be the weakest of the new entrants, and perhaps most interesting of all, Annie, who's definitely a target.

    I'm keen to learn more about Jen, she seemed to confident and competent early on, is she work shy, or is there a real problem there?

    8/10.

    • Goofs
      Gerry is helping Tommy to pass his shooting qualification on the police indoor range. However, although Tommy is wearing ear defenders, Gerry is not. Not only would this be very uncomfortable for Gerry, it is against the rules. There are two range officers present, and they would never allow this.
