Awful


What a pile of crap the story was slow and boring it would be better suited for E4 rather than then BBC 2

I have to agree. I stopped watchung halfway through the first episode, it really was dreadfully boring.

I semi enjoyed it. Guessed the killer early doors though.

I was surprised to discover that the actors playing Stewart and Ellie aren't Scottish. Their accents were both pretty good.

Best performance was from Gleeson.

I thought the whole thing was more like a lengthy commercial for Next clothes and Ford cars than anything else. Ellie's brothers (presumably from 3 different fathers) were more laughable than frightening, and the lightweight "enforcer" (Powell) had all the menace and gravitas of a postgrad geology student.

**Minor Spoiler**
Maybe I was falling asleep, but did I miss the very important bit where Stewart confronted Ellie about her snogging the other bloke at the party which then set him off?

........would disagree, it was supposed to be set in the NE of Scotland but the main charachters had generic Central Belt accents and the minor drug dealer a "Schemie" one - not a hint of the Doric!

I would not say it was awful but it did lose it a bit in the second episode.

Its that man again!!

It's somewhere between poor and rubbish. Its definetly a 2nd division show.
It might even be 3rd . No tension , no thrills and everybody looks as tho they're ' acting ' .
