People are right about Clunes's accent. Love this actor, he's a natural, but unfortunately they have tried to make him Welsh. If they wanted this character to be Welsh they should have got a Welsh actor.

It's great that it's set in Wales. Beautiful country and unique people. I blame the director. The one mitigating excuse for Clunes's accent is his father is English. But his accent is not continuous - it veers badly between English and Welsh in a single sentence and is distracting. It takes you out of your suspension of disbelief. They should have made him Welsh or English - a whole new barrel of issues to contend with although apparently some say too much is packed into this drama already.

Only on episode one. And will stick with it because like Martin Clunes (let down here by being allowed to make up his own accent), love Wales and the Welsh and am very interested in the subject matter of farmers, youth, county lines etc etc.

Brilliantly written, plotted, cast, acted and directed and brilliant at showing all sides of so many issues, all of which resulted in caring about and investing in most of the main characters. Sam Malik and Justin Mitchell were amazing, supported by an also impeccable cast. To put all of this across in 5 episodes is unusual.

Maybe people who feel strongly about either side of the coin won't like it because of the way it portrays both sides so effectively.

I don't like to big stuff up too much. But I can't fault it. Everyone involved in this should be proud of themselves. It will stay with me for a while. Brilliant.

Brilliant British farce. Brilliantly cast, plotted, written, directed n acted. Never heard of it before which is strange as think it was made about 10 years ago. What nay sayers call cliches n stereotypes are part of the whole enjoyable experience of this. So many nods to other dramas/comedies n actual life. Brilliantly done.

James Corden still plays James Corden. So what? You could argue throughout his career Robert de Niro has played Robert de Niro.

Having tried to watch so much cr** new comedy series these days, I have to say this has been exceptional. Quality production all round - extremely hard core as well - with the violence n executions. Quite hard to watch sometimes. These guys have combined everything in a dark, dramatic comedy thriller.

Gonna be sad to watch the last episode which I'm in the middle of right now. I will also miss them ...
