I am continuing to watch it to see how it all pans out.
I have to say there doesn't seem to be one likeable character in it.

Looks like most people have given up on this? I can't say I understand what's going on, keep forgetting who belongs to which family. But tonight's episode: are we really supposed to feel sorry for Lisa?? How could she not understand the importance of what she did? But... whoever the young policeman is, why did he suddenly decide to look at the CCTV footage again and find she was on there? Can anyone explain, please?  |

I think something needed to be checked and because Lisa was stroppy with him he went and got the stick himself only to discover a folder empty. Puzzled, he went back to the bar where luckily they had a copy...….. I forget who is who every week but remember as we go along. I am sticking with it it's OK but nothing special.
The mother demanding to see Lisa for no good reason and over hearing about the bar was so ridiculous though! |

She was clearly being naive ... she should have have given him the alibi if only to put him in the clear - at least for those 10 minutes. All she was worried about was her reputation. She doctored the CCTV footage to protect her own reputation
Yes, that took me by surprise too (he was her rookie, Dem and she was supposed to demonstrating the job to him) I don't think we saw when or how he got to see the original footage considering she deleted it!.

Yes I’m still watching it! Med was asked by the duty officer to see if he could find the missing memory stick that the pub footage was on, as it wasn’t in the evidence store, so he checked in her desk and it was there. He then decided to have a look at it, presumably to check it was the right memory stick.
I’m still enjoying it in a weird kind of way. I think the hoodie guy with the white trainers waiting for Holly could be the drug dealer.

I've been sticking with it although I still dislike the story, the setting and every character! Watching it becomes self perpetuating; the more time I invest in it, the more I feel I have to! The sergeant (at least I think that's what he is. I forget who's who as well) on the case was reviewing the evidence and wanted to look at the CCTV film from the pub but couldn't find the memory stick it was on. He came looking for Lisa because he knew she'd had it. The trainee told him she was watching Sean's interview and offered to fetch her. When he tried she told him she was busy in her usual charming way so he went looking for the stick himself and found it in her desk drawer (as if she would have just left it there). For some reason he decided to look at it himself and found the empty folder so took it upon himself to go back to the pub for another copy. In reality once he'd found the memory stick, wouldn't he have just taken it to the more senior officer who wanted it in the first place? I was pleased to see Lisa in trouble though. I wanted to know how the daughter's boyfriend knew to appear at the druggies house when they wouldn't let her leave. Had he gone to deliver the drugs with her and waited out of sight? And is the son going to get away with all the thieving he's been doing around the town? Any other kid caught like he was would have been arrested and charged. Last one next week I think - although it does seem to be going on forever - and then I'll be free of it.  Not one of the finest tv dramas! |

I thought it might be the councillor. He seemed much too agitated when he heard Holly had been found.

 That's pretty much me too. I'll have to watch the finale having got this far. No, not a great drama - and although it held out some promise after the first episode it's gone steadily downhill for me since then.

I think she texted him presumably with the address. The story is nonsense but I find it passes the time. |

She did text him yes, and the only part of the text I could see said HELP! So I assume the address was there too

Yes, the text message started with the address:  |

I am glad it's come out about Lisa. Her behaviour could have knackered the whole investigation.

I am glad it's come out about Lisa. Her behaviour could have knackered the whole investigation. Me too, I think she is appalling. And the same goes for her ghastly daughter for whom I have no time whatsoever. Hope she gets banged up for drug dealing! I don't like many of the characters either but it holds my attention. I have suspicions about the councillor too, but the outfit seems a bit left field for him. Would be be trying to look trendy? I think he.would look a bit mutton. I am glad it was Med who rumbled Lisa. She has treated him really badly if she is supposed to be his mentor so indirectly he has got his revenge. Good! Actually people are very rude and unpleasant generally in this aren't they? |

Well I hadn't thought of that outcome!
Glad it's over now.

I didn't predict that outcome either.
I thought it improved a bit for the finale. Judging from high viewing figures there will quite possibly be a second series.
