Cuffs

A fantastic show!! Casting did a terrific job, the actors are so good, perfect! The story lines are good very real to life, I can imagine that is just what it is like out there on the front lines for the police. I like that it is in Brighton. I am so disappointed there is only one series. Why were more not made? Whoever made the stupid decision to end this excellent series should be fired!!

If not for the perverted personal relationships, this show could have been a solid 8. The obligatory gay couples are totally unnecessary detritus but the rest of the show has a good mix of humor, drama, and interesting stories. The frustrations and trials of British police and the challenges of policing are highlighted along with the diversity of situations with which the police have to deal as effectively as possible. Obviously the Justice system in Great Britain is as dysfunctional as what we in the States have to endure.

I binge watched this show over the last couple days and it was absolutely amazing! The action and the scenarios were exciting, adrenaline fuelled and at times, very intense! Each character was different and had there own advantages and disadvantages and were played very well. The writing was amazing and so so realistic. I really wish they made more episodes because this show is amazing.

I came across this show a few weeks ago in Australia - I'm am hooked! I love the characters & storyline. This show has so much potential to go on with many seasons to come .. just look at the success of Law & Order, CSI & SVU just to name a few. I'm finding the UK based shows do this regularly to us just to torture us ..? Maybe. For eg, Doc Martin- another brilliant UK show that I've been reading season 10 will be the last - WHY?? Miss Scarlet & the Duke is another show I look forward to watching (not sure how many seasons are planned for that ) Do we need Rapper Drake to intervene here also ? Can someone for the love of everything that is good in England please continue with these amazing shows-please!

I don't usually write reviews but I became so cross when I heard that 'Cuffs' was axed. I just could not understand this decision and wrote straight away to Ben Stevenson who chooses drama at the BBC. Cuffs is a brilliant programme, wonderful acting, clever story lines ... a programme which entertains as well as educating. I am 72 so you can imagine the load of rubbish I have seen throughout the years and suddenly this gem of a series crops up. I nearly missed it as I don't usually start watching anything until 9 pm. I have two grandchildren of 16 and 18 and this is the kind of programme they enjoy...much better than the rubbish and unbelievable story lines of programmes like Eastenders which I never watch. What is the BBC doing about this mistake? Please use some sense and bring this series back. Polly Perkins
