I was looking for a thread on this. Watched the first two episodes yesterday. Was very interesting about how the police respond and how it is resourced.

The second episode of this just broke my heart.

I dunno about broke my heart but it was certainly interesting the way that the misper's double life was teased out by the police. On the other hand, I felt like giving a cheer at the outcome of the last episode.

As the series was dubbed Series 1 I do hope there will be another in the not too distant future. One thing I liked was the fact that they based the series in one of the UK's smaller and less well known police forces instead of the Met or GMP which is usually the case. I hope that a future series would also be focused on (different) a small force with a very different profile such as Cumbria, Devon & Cornwall or Dyfedd.
