http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00wrk40Miss Emily and I started watching this. It is a crime drama that follows a detective (Gillian Anderson) as they get brought in to help on a murder case.
It is a great piece of crime drama, comparable with The Killing in some ways, but not quite as overall-good. Something that I am loving is a total absence of background music - if the characters are sat in uncomfortable silence, so are you. As they rush somewhere, you hear only the sounds of them rushing, no driving music to go with it etc etc.
The main characters are not barbie and ken dolls apart from
one of them, but he gets assassinated so I don't have to be annoyed by his waxed chest and steroid boosted muscles any more
, which is good to see.
We missed the start of the series but caught up on iPlayer, via our cable service, which is cool as my laptop has decided that it no longer wishes to produce sound!
If you liked The Killing, it is worth watching this, though it is not as atmospheric it is very watchable.
