Witness No. 3

The soundtrack and production values, from locations to lighting to camera angles even the hoodie costumes, are all excellent. They build a modern horror atmosphere to mix with the thriller aspect. It's just that the acting is a little stilited. It's still one of the best series I've seen from C5 and very watchable. Try to catch it.

The storyline is ok, but surely the police wouldn't leave their only witness (a single mother living on her own in the middle of the estate) without putting her into witness protection? She's still walking around as if everything is normal? Wide open to a drive by shooting or random stabbing maybe? Laughable 😂 I stopped watching at the beginning of episode 2 when they started the DIY on her flat! 🙄

Lots of weak characters in this, especially the police. I felt the drama concentrated too much on the main actor who wasn't very good. The supporting cast, the mother, son and drug dealer saved it from totally bombing. This was a good idea but didn't quite gel for me. I watched all of the episodes but the ending was very predictable. There was just something missing from the start.

Can't understand the poor ratings. Excellent drama. Took my breath away at times. A very thought provoking drama which left me feeling quite overwhelmed by what was happening to this family. Personally I thought the acting was great. After some of the appalling dramas we have been presented with, this for me was well worth watching.

The premise is strong and Jodie's a character we can definitely root for but she was given too much to do on her own in the opener. The cop assigned to her wasn't convincing though.

I liked it for the most part and its good to see credible stories about life on the estate, so congrats for that. Production values were generally OK but soundtrack was a bit OTT.

It did enough to keep me watching all the way through, four episodes was just the right length and it had a satisfying ending. Better than most recent Channel 5 dramas.
