The Bay

Enjoying this. If you don't understand the accents, put subtitles on. This is a British drama made for a British audience, and we can understand it! Seriously I put on subtitles when I can't understand some drawling US accents

Lisa was the main character in both first seasons, so sending her to London in S03 was shooting themselves in the foot. S03 didn't feel like previous ones. I couldn't finish the first episode.

I like the series, but found the subplots of the investigator's children a bit distracting, it's almost like the writers were looking to fill some time. As for the criticism of the accents. I had not problem understanding them.

Having watched this drama being filmed in and around Morecambe, last Summer, I was looking forward to seeing how the first episode would look. I wasn't disappointed...the dramatic backdrop of the bay and the brooding soundtrack helped to draw you in. As for the accents...yep...they're northern...but what would you expect to hear.

Lokking forward to seeing how the characters develope over the coming episodes.

I loved the series with Morven Christie as DS Lisa Armstrong and was eagerly awaiting the new seasons. The side story line with her family was good and interesting.

The new DS Jenn Townsend ( Marsha Thomason) is so bad I almost switced it off. She is bad as a mother, stepmother, partner and colleague. I like grumpy characters when they are good, but she is just in constant bad mood, failing all her roles. Very unlikeable character.

I don't know if it is a bad script or just plain bad acting. I love the other characters and like the story line. It was a different league with Morven Christie as DS Lisa Armstrong.
