Maybe if they had paid attention to the storyline they would realise it's not a social worker but a property developer who owns half of Glasgow. Interesting plot with the added bonus of no false Glasgow accents.
The characters have a great depth and they slowly get revelead to the viewer with good plot twists! After episode 2 is hard to know yet if the main male character is a good character or a villain... good suspence and "misteri" which will make you curious to watch the new episode!
Top notch drama, . Nice to see such a quality production filmed in and around Glasgow with the creme de la creme of Scottish acting talent in David Hayman and Martin Compston. Many critics say Compston does a good Glasgow accent, after only being familiar with his performances in Line Of Duty. Well he would have "a good Glasgow accent " as he was brought up in Greenock, not far from Glasgow,
The young girl playing the troubled teen is an excellent actress and must surely have a successful acting career ahead of her. I am sure we will see a lot more of her in years to come.
Thisis an enthralling drama that really does get you thinking about each character and are they what they seem.
Firstly, the acting is phenomenal. It's not often I see a programme where every character is acted superbly, we feel every ounce of their emotions and despite the short 5 part series, we actually develop feelings for each character.
The series is exciting, gripping and full of twists, yet sometimes I found the show infuriating. There are times you see Kaya treated rather oddly by Dan and Emily - I understand it could be possible for Emily to be so pedantic and over the top, however I did find it weird for Dan to be so aggressive towards Kaya. There were times I felt a simple conversation would have sorted the predicament so I did occasionally feel the script was unrealistic.
Overall however I thoroughly enjoyed the show - the first four episodes were superb yet I did find the last episode a bit slow and tedious, however the first four episodes more than made up for that.
If you're debating what to watch, then I'd really recommend this programme. You'll enjoy it.

It is the way Scots speak. If you were to hear "small girl" or "little girl" ten times in a movie, would you think that a parody.
