Missing

I just found this series, and I think it's delightful. The writing is good, as is the acting; there are several well known actors in it. The plots aren't complicated, but that's just what I need sometimes. The episodes are 45 minutes long, and the cases are wrapped up in each episode, perfect for some "comfort TV". By no means is this series "horrible" as one previous reviewer wrote. It's also nice that the lead actress isn't a beautiful young Hollywood type, but rather a real person; this is something I like about British series.

Boring stories. No suspense, but over acted and " grouchy" characters. No excitement and their laws, they cannot DO ANYTHING! The officers get killed and run over in British police shows, they hold up their hands and people are suppose to stop! Really!

The Sargeant is so bland and has no acting skills. She just goes off the handle at friends, and moons her way with the family suspects.

Murder is 10 years, no wonder they have so many there! Too much blather about their own family. It is so boring. Family is not kidnapped or killed by serial killer, just people who cry about family who leaves because they don't get along! Boring, waste of my time.

Poor Pauline Quirk having to work with this lot. Scripting was unnatural and awkward, the guy from The Bill (Wingett) needed to tone his overacting down about 60%, I had trouble remembering they were supposed to be police officers - the younger cast members were like work experience students. Just awful.

This is a poorly written soap opera type police series with dreary characters, simplistic plots and a lead character that looks like someone's Nan. The supporting characters are uninteresting and also uninterested! They add little to the series. It's just a badly done, badly written series that could not last. The episodes do little to draw you in, and it is just a mindless watch that let's your mind drift off. Everything gets wrapped up nicely at the end of each episode, but if the episodes were more interesting, and the characters a bit more developed and with more depth to them, it may have encouraged me to stick with it. As it was, had to bail mid season 1.

Was always curious to watch this show on acorn tv. I'm certainly glad I did! A great cast and surprisingly fantastic guest actors! A lot of good eastenders and coronation street and The royal today alumn!!

I rather like Pauline Quirke in anything she does. She always does the tough broad role rather well! Just to bad they didn't leave her with more of her own character like a mum and wife for this role as a smart DCI

The Show is short and simple half hour episodes which are light and thankfully not to much of the rigor mortises, blood and guts that doesn't appeal to us who are a bit faint at heart!
