So good - so many layers

[22 December 2022]

I love this show, interesting characters, realistic crimes and reactions.

Its not exactly Scandi noir because it's city based - but it has the strong female characters of Scandi noir along with a pacey police procedural. I've no idea why it's not more highly rated, it's Definitely worth your time.

The acting is strong, there's a true underlying essence of how and why the police stick together in the worst of situations because no one should really need to make the decisions they do under extreme pressure of day to day policing issues, really it's no wonder Post traumatic stress disorder is so prevalent in the forces, realistically there's major issues with how it's set up.

Intimacy (2022)

Definitely worth your time

It's a slow burn but brilliantly acted and there's so much female power and lessons for us all. I think maybe those with more advanced thinking will appreciate it.

Takes a moment to get into - but worth it.

Interesting characters, beautiful scenery and well acted. The conceit of talking to camera does take an episode to get used to but makes sense for the character. Definitely worth your time.

I laughed, I cried, I want another season soon please!

[25 October 2021]

Brilliant, just absolutely brilliant - so realistic it takes you on a journey that you really want to escape from sometimes, lucky for us we can switch it off, the real police can't. No wonder they end up with so much PTSD, this programme truly shows the crap they put up with and that sometimes they fall down with the pain of it all. The best TV I've watched in ages, the characters are believable, the storylines are breathtakingly realistic, I can't wait for the next season.

Unit One (2000–2004)

Watching in 2021 - it's timeless

[28 August 2021]

Great crime show, I've watched lots of Scandi noir and this is still top class even though made 20 years ago. Definitely worth your time.

Life is tough then you find a sista

[20 June 2021]

I loved this bleak, funny series. The acting is superb Veerle in particular is brilliant as the put upon but tough older sister to everyone.

It's obvious this is written by a female because they own the screen and the story, definitely worth your time.
