Not at all your typical police procedural. First there is the context of policing in 'post conflict' N. Ireland where the peace of the last twenty five years still involves armed cops as routine and some sectarian divided areas under the sway of paramilitaries running drug operations.

Second, the placing of rookie probationers experiences at front and centre of the drama. There is plenty of tension and some shocking scenes as the story develops but a thread of dry humour adds much to the entertainment. Coming from Belfast I have to applaud the authenticity of the dialogue. Several of the performances are really excellent.

Incidentally, I expect one outcome of the show will be that the word 'thran' (stubborn, pig headed) will be catching on across the UK just as 'craic' has done in recent years.

Stick with this series for an emotional payoff.
