It's OK. That's all it is. There's a laziness about the idea - a former detective called back to investigate. You know when you play a rail shooter? This is drama in that vein. You know exactly what to expect and you get it, but none of it is that good. It's just all middle of the road. Adrian Dunbar is always great and I can't fault any of the cast. It's the by-the-numbers writing and production. It feels like Vera meets Happy Valley in Ireland, except it's not as good as either of those shows. It's safe, safe, safe. Soap opera level crime drama. That's all I have to say but I need to add this up to 600 characters so will waffle on a bit more here.
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.
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.

... 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.

It's a smallish point, and I've only watched episodes 1 and 2, but Adrian singing, really, come on. It really niggled me to the point where I got up and made a cup of tea. I like Adrian Dunbar as an actor, and that's how I like to see him. Rant over.
It's a good TV police drama, and apart from the singing, well worth watching. Good plot(s), excellent cast, convincing acting and very down to earth - perhaps too close to home for some maybe. So it's a bit sad to think that - at least story 1, is how the UK is these days.
I enjoyed series 1 (except for the singing) and I'm sure I will enjoy the rest of series 2.
