Bang

Pity this series is in both English & Welsh language. Found this annoying.

Just one language would have been much better. Why chopping from one to the other during same scene/conversation?

Was that rubbish I just sat through? Dopey cops, a pathetic brother to one of the dopey cops, cardboard cut-out "baddies". Did I mention the brother is a moron? Actually, so is the cop sister.

Having them speak Welsh was neither here nor there as a plot point. In fact as the plot was all over the shop, they could have spoken Swahili and it wouldn't have made it any more ridiculous.

We almost didn't start this show because of the 6.6 rating. But we have learned over time that some "foreign" shows don't get a good shake.

We enjoyed it a lot because it's quite atmospheric & quirky. Probably if you like American cop shows this isn't for you.

We are hoping for s season 3.

I've been watching this on the iPlayer and so pleased I stumbled across it. What a gem! Emotional drama with a real sense of place. The central brother and sister story is beautifully told with a sense of how crime influences a victim's life. I love the use of two languages - makes a thrilling drama particularly unique.

Location: South Wales. Horse running on beach followed by it standing on beach munching on sand?. Does't move when truck trailer drive up. Poor start for realism.

Two detectives working together have a romantic relationship on the side. Not good policing policy, but good for viewer demographics. Even the supervisor is in a questionable relationship with a parole officer. Overall detective behavior & sleuthing skill very inept. Action consists mostly of lots of running (in dress shoes & attire coupled with poor running form) after suspects.

Formula detective series seems copied by many countries in making their own local version, i.e. The usual cheap quick scene of dead person; the usual questioning of misdirected suspects; the usual low IQ forensics; the usual interdepartmental issues. Actors seem chosen for looks & not believability.
