North Sea Connection

In a similar manner to the show 'Breaking Bad' this series has all the markings of a series that will be a hit.

You have the normal people finding themselves involved in a large scale drug business and the police just a few steps behind and when the dead bodies start appearing it becomes harder and harder to cover ones tracks.

I wonder if they will explore the effect a large operation like this will have on a small fishing village. Its fascinating.

The acting and music are perfect in a beautiful setting in Ireland.

Please don't cancel this show it brilliant.

I eagerly await the next episode :)

This is a six-episode series that leaves most of the story lines open.

I had very much enjoyed it, up until then. I don't know the west of Ireland, but it certainly felt authentic. Though there did seem rather a lot of outsiders.

A series of twists and turns in the plot.

And hardly a spoiler to say that people who get involved in drug smuggling find out that things quickly run out of control.

It was developing nicely. But Episode Six ends with most of the crucial plot-lines still open. I assume a second series is planned, but then have also short-changed their audience.

I reduced my score from 8 to 4, because no one should do that to their audience.

This is the biggest pile of garbage to grace our screens .bad acting.bad accents.bad language.the cinematography is zero. Renvyle is a beautiful part of Connemara and we,ve seen none of that yet.only a depressing warehouse.a manky plot that a Dublin land lived in.dissing Dubliners .and the pier.where is it going.nowhere.its a dispicable dipiction of the beautiful west coast of ireland.it makes my blood boil as I live here .romanticising drug smuggling... no actual Irish actors eventhough we have plenty to choose from.father Ted was banned from our screens and we are paying to watch this pooh.💩

I waited to watch the whole series before commentating as, I have been stung before by being negative in regards to a series, without giving it time to develop. This series took time however, the time was worth it.

The storyline is good, it deals with modern themes, and involves cross border police co-operation. A commentator made a point of this, based on nothing. In Ireland, cross border policing has being in place since 1922, and European cross border policing has been in place, since 1923, (Interpol).

The only actor I knew was Sinead Cusack yet, that didn't make any difference to my viewing. In the past number of years, even during Covid; Ireland has burst out onto the International stage with drama series that give a run for the money, against other countries that have been to the forefront, for decades.

I'm Irish therefore, I could be partisan, I'm not. We're world renowned for being funny yet, we couldn't write a sitcom to save our lives. Drama is our forte, and this is the latest in what we can write and produce.

The fact there has been a collaboration with an unexpected country (source) says something. The fact that previous drama series from this little country over the past few years, have now been shown on all continents of the world, shows that we have a punch.

Oh, and some of them have been nominated for International Awards, unheard of before now. That usually is reserved for BBC, ITV, CH4, etc.

The finale is some kicker. I expected a resolution, with loose ends tied up. What an ending.....

Apart from Sinead these were a new set of actors to enjoy. Very believable well cast characters and outstanding acting in all corners of the room!

Genuine well written storyline that goes to and fro between the interesting characters each has a depth and a like ability. The international angle broadens its appeal without involving the across the water neighbours. The setting is of course spectacular and natural, nothing artificial about the fishing village or the folks going about their business there. Lots of jeopardy throughout the episodes, lots of emotion expounded as I wore away the edge of my seat.
