Glue

Following the finding of a 14 y.o. boy killed we get to explore a beautiful scenery, amazing teenagers trapped in a small village and discover their lives, experiences and feelings.

Although there some parts skippable the whole of it is an amazing experience.

Didn't honestly expected that from a show based on a murder, truly worth your time if you have it.

In many ways this was a good series with many strands and mis-directions. However the acting was erratic and not always believable. But worse than that, as usual, everything around the horse elements was very poor. Wrong tack (General purpose not racing saddles), race horses that just stand around for hours without being tied up, the jockey being given her first race in a big race, anyone allowed to wander around in the weighing room but no officials there, no Stewards enquiry 're the pulled race and many other elements. There was so much potential here and I did persevere to the end (just cos I wanted to know the outcome) but it fell very short of what it could have been

Glue started intriguing with the discovery of a dead body and the presentation of the different characters/suspects. You immediately try to figure it out, like in most of mystery movies/series. And that for about four episodes, just half of the series, after that it gets boring, almost childish behaviours of some of the characters. Bad writing towards the end. Okay I was surprised by the culprit, but not surprised enough to find it a good mystery series. For that the acting of some of the lead actors looked just worthy of soap operas like Eastenders and other trashy shows like that. Yasmin Paige, Jordan Stephens, Charlotte Spencer, those three main characters were annoying to watch with Charlotte Spencer and Jordan Stephens as the most likely to end up doing soap operas. It started well to end badly, luckily it's only eight episodes long.

I really enjoyed this whodunit, some gaffs throughout the series but overall worth a watch. It kept you guessing until the end which I didn't find very realistic.

Great acting, many faces who have gone on to do some top acting - really enjoyed this series.
