Traces

Great storyline, plenty of twists. However the lead actress is wrongly cast. Appears too young to fit the character and lacks facial emotion, so it irratated throughout.

I initially intended to watch the first episode of Traces just to try it out, and ended up watching the entire series in one go- I haven't seen television this engaging in a long time! I was struck with the attention to detail and the commitment to realism in regards to the forensic aspects of the show, it was incredibly intriguing. The characters were nuanced and unique, and the dialogue was believable. I hope a second series is in the works!

Series 1 was good but Series 2 was a mess - they literally lost the plot - the unusual central saga of S1 is abruptly written out in ep 2.02 without being concluded, leaving a great big hole which they desperately try to fill with melodramatic romances between cardboard cut-out characters which even Eastenders would reject as too clunky. Meanwhile a nutter sets off homemade bombs around Dundee for no real reason, even on nutter-logic. It's all become very silly ...

Please either let it die now, or if anyone is desperate enough to commission a 3rd series, bring back the unfinished central plot from S1 and focus on that without trying to throw all the soap opera froth into the mix. And bring in a better director and scriptwriter who can give the cast something less wooden to work with.

No emotion in the protagonists voice,same in everything she does.So monotone and her facial expressions are always the same. Stuck with it just to know the outcome.

It's a great story very entertaining but that lead actress is just so annoying there's something about the way she talks and acts is super annoying I wish they had a different actress and it would've been amazing.
