Just watched this on Acorn, excellent plot with many twists. The quality of acting we have come to expect from a British production. Hope there is a sequel in the pipeline
Just binge watched it and it kept me guessing. Very enjoyable way to spend a wet afternoon. Great job to all concerned. Keep the U.K. Dramas coming please!
The Level is yet another crime drama from the UK. That's not a bad thing in itself but I do feel, at times, they start to run short of ideas and The Level is a case in question.
Firstly lets look at the good. Its predictably well acted, directed and ably creates an atmosphere of rising tension, that fits well with the series overriding plot.
The bad is reflected in the fact that the whole notion, is a little far fetched. The proposition of a cop having a personal link with an individual from a questionable, legal background is fine. Whats inexplicable are the cops actions after initial events unfold. Whilst most people would be keeping a low profile, maybe even resigning or transferring to stay off the radar, she wades into an investigation that stands to expose her. Of course, this is the at the heart of the story but it is in my opinion "weak tea" and more than a little implausible.
That's not to say this series is not watchable. It is for the most part but I found it stretched my credulity more than a little. Six out of ten from me.

This is the second time I have seen your comment on the "Trevor Eve" school of a acting, who are you to cast such aspersions on what is a perfectly reasonable, fairly ordinary crime series which I for one enjoyed. This pompous attitude has no place in serious reviews and simply reflects the reviewers limited and jaundiced views, try to be a little more genuine and remember you are reviewing for others not your self centred self. There is a mass market out there that needs this kind of entertainment what do you think Shakespeare was doing when he was writing his plays? He wanted people to come and see them and not pontificate from so low level of understanding as to what it was all about. Suggest you chill out but you seem to be one of those serial reviewers who believe people might take you seriously well get over it they don't.
