Dark and authentic Belfast rookie cop drama fits the bill
The first episode took a while to get into its stride, but once it did I found it compelling. The show has decent production values, it was nicely directed and written and the cast, many of who were new to me performed well across the board.
I think Blue Lights will appeal to viewers who like their drama on the dark side, fans of Jimmy McGovern's writing or last years 'The Responder' with Martin Freeman - its in that kind of ball park.
There are a few shafts of light and humour as it develops, particularly between the three rookies but its hard-hitting and realistic throughout.
Well worth a look if you like a bit (or a lot!) of noir in your cop shows, I recommend it highly, a quality show that will grip you.
