Cleddau

The community of Pembroke Dock is rocked, when Abbi Rayner, a nurse is killed, twelve years after Paul Harvey was convicted for killing two other nurses, DI Ffion Lloyd is drafted in the head the case, along with DS Rick Sheldon, the pair know eachother well.

It's a very good, Welsh drama, there was enough here to make me want to binge watch it in two sittings, if you're a fan of Hinterland and Hidden, you'll enjoy this.

It's a typically murky storyline, with plenty of suspects, the obligatory friction between the two central characters, and there's the dysfunctional family.

I wasn't crazy initially about Rick and Ffion knowing one another, I felt that idea has been overdone, but it worked well in the end.

Episode three was the big turning point for me, I thought it was terrific, really had me on the edge of my seat.

You'll recognise so many faces, including Richard Harrington and Elen Rhys, but if you've enjoyed the aforementioned dramas, you'll recognise plenty more.

The acting is first rate, the whole cast perform so well, I'd have to make a special mention for Matthew Aubrey though, I thought he was terrific as Mel Owen.

7/10.

I have watched some BBC Wales dramas in the past and enjoyed them. Keeping Faith was one of them.

This one hooked me from the very beginning , watched first 3 episodes without a break.

Unlike a lot of dramas the characters are not cardboard cutouts , they all have a bit of depth and actually are quite realistic.

The story is quite good, plenty of twists and turns. At the end of the day it's very good solid entertainment. Occasionally there are some silly coincidences and some predictable occurrences. Still overall I enjoyed it, mainly due to the actors and the sense of realism.

This is good solid BBC drama which vis most enjoyable. Recommend watching it.

Brits are pros at this - well-executed police procedurals. You can rely on them to have solid plotting and carefully planned dramatic arcs, capable actors, and three-dimensional characters with realistically grounded problems.

I enjoyed that the pacing wasn't rushed - however, the series could've been an hour shorter. (It annoys me that it appears "compulsory" nowadays to have at least 6 episodes for one story.) There were some unnecessary coincidences, and to be fair, all and all the series wasn't really that groundbreaking.

However, it was still a good binge with lovely Welsh scenery to boot.

Cleddau aka The One That Got Away is a Welsh Crime show that you should definitely not miss. The show is based on the so called "Heart Knot Murders" that took long time ago near Cleddau Woods. The murderer Harvey is in the prison but things change after a new body is found in the woods again. So the detectives DS Rick Sheldon (Richard Harrington) and DI Ffion Lloyd (Elen Rhys) start to look into the case to understand whether there is a copycat killer or they took the wrong guy (Harvey) to prison. There are major twists in the story and watch until the very last second of this show ! I think that this series should have a second season and it can be based on a different story line because the duo of Harrington and Lloyd are acting awesome. I give 8 over 10 to this show !

Just finished the English language version. Starts well, good cast, typical but credible murder mystery. Sadly many of these shows seem to be written without planning a proper ending so get lost in the woods. After a dozen red herrings it becomes obvious who dunnit. Why? There's only one person left! The ending is utterly ludicrous. Save your time by watching something better. The cast is excellent and do their very best to rescue this turkey from the mess it sinks to. You can actually see mike's in advance what's going to happen next. I feel sorry for the actors who have to wade through this bilge.
