The Jetty: Episode #1.1 (2024)
Season 1, Episode 1
3/10
Episode 1
19 July 2024
The Jetty is in fictional Hap Lake. In real life it was filmed in Hollingworth Lake in Littleborough, Lancashire.

The first episode starts with scenic views. A young woman called Riz talks to her podcast listeners. The disappearance of a schoolgirl many years earlier. It goes downhill from there.

The script is banal, the story is uninspired. DC Ember Manning (Jenna Coleman) and her younger partner investigate an arson attack on a boathouse. Her late husband used to own it, now it has been sold.

Ember was married an older man when she was young. Now in her investigations she comes across Miranda Ashby, a young injured teenager who might be pregnant to an older man.

In her years in the police force, Ember has not fathomed the dark underbelly of the place. That maybe older men have been abusing teenage girls.

The story is in two lines and it is obvious they will merge. This was a tedious opener. The acting was not up to much.
