What a wonderful, down to earth, refreshing, no frills series. As this is mainly about sex crimes, it can be quite graphic verbally and some scenes may be hard to watch. Definitely an adult programme with adult themes. The characters are well fleshed out, and you watch the initial tensions within ease over the course of the series. There is a story arc that spans the 3 seasons but it doesn't detract from the main work of the unit. I'm not going to spoil it all and think you should watch and make up your own minds. I will say that I loved the way it ended. It makes a change to have a proper ending instead of leaving the viewers wondering. My congratulations to Walter Presents on a brilliant series and keep it up please.

Series 1 - 11 were absolutely wonderful. William was inventing. Crabtree was hilariously naming stuff! Julia was moving with the times, as you would expect of a worldly woman. Everything was working, staying within the boundaries of the time they were living in. Series 12 comes along and things changed quite dramatically. William wasn't inventing very much. There started to be more attention to the main characters personal lives than murder or mystery. Now on series 13 and it just seems to be worsening. William hasn't invented anything, and, dare I say it? Yes, woke! Why are we suddenly putting today's social values in an early 1900s setting? I just don't get it at all. They'll all be using mobile phones and the internet next.

Intended to watch first couple of episodes and ended up binge watching the whole first series. Thoroughly enjoyed. A bit confusing at times until you make the connection of what it going on. Can't wait for the second season and hope it doesn't disappoint.
