I love police crime series, and if they are British even better, they are of great quality. The actor Adrian Dunbar does a fantastic job! The whole casting is just great.
It's not the best English series I've seen at all, but each episode embraces you in a mixture of tension and pleasant melancholy, like a bonfire and a glass of red on a winter's day.
Ridley delivers exactly what you can expect from a British police series that consciously does not want to be innovative. You'll probably forget this series after a week, but that doesn't apply to Dunbar's musical talent, and it's real, Dunbar sings in real life.. and I like it! It's a style of singing that I appreciate, and the nice jazzie music gives a relaxing touch to the series, to take a break from crime. The photography is again exceptional.
The plot of each episode is very smooth and beautifully structured scripts. They always start with a murder case or disappearance and are connected by developments in the lives of Ridley and his right hand Carol. In some cases it can be a little predictable, since I guess some things, but each viewer will have their personal experience.
This is another solid police procedure British series! And the low rating surprises me.

Newly promoted DCI Carol Farman, calls on the help of retired Detective Alex Ridley, who operates as a consultant Detective.
ITV continue to look for another Sunday night drama, one to fill the slot that Endeavour, and eventually Vera will leave, I feel with Ridley, that they have a real winner.
Something almost a little old fashioned about it somehow, old fashioned in a good way, it's less glossy than recent shows like McDonald & Dodds and Van Der Valk, it's slightly more gritty.
It's an excellent show, tightly written, beautifully produced, well paced, and unlike so many recent shows, it's got a bit of grit.
Adrian Dunbar is awesome as Ridley, he has a huge presence, his character is so interesting, he's smart, but haunted by a tragedy from his past. Bronagh Waugh is excellent also as Farman, who'd believe she's not from Lancashire with that accent.
Well done ITV, this is a winner, 8/10.

All the stupid Line of Duty comments aside this was a solid police plot well cast and acted. I guess these critics think it is easy to put on these performances. It is a police drama people what you think you was going to see something all original. Never knew Adrian could sing but I loved the songs at the end of each episode. Made for a very nice touch. Hope I can find the soundtrack on Spotify. Why do these reviews have to be 600 characters? For crying out loud I said all I had to say and how do all these other critics get off with two sentences but I am forced to blather on and on and on and.
... great start to this British police procedural drama in four standalone stories... the first of this four-part mini-series is longer than many movies, yet it plays exceptionally well for its 120 minute length... all the cast is very well selected and to a man (or woman) perform admirably
... Adrian Dunbar has been in several well-known-heralded series: Line of Duty, Broken, Blood, Five Fables.. to name just several in his long illustrious forty-plus-year-career... his work stands on its own merit... another good one, Ridley looks to be a most entertaining addition to his long body of achievements.

Adrian Dunbar plays a police consultant who also is part owner of a jazz bar, which unfortunately, he feels compelled to serenade us from through his nose. This show otherwise fits the bill as a good nearly noire detective murder mystery. Ridley always gets his man or woman as the case may be. His costar is a good in her role as the detective chief inspector sidekick and conscience for Ridley. The rest of this review is filler because IMDB never learned about "brevity is the soul of wit", and demands an essay when a sentence will do. Mind you, i don't consider myself the soul of wit, but if forced to keep jabbering on, I may show myself as the soul of nitwit.
