I watched this by accident one night and I was pleasantly surprised. The young actors in particular did a very good job, they were convincing and fresh and even though the topics covered are sometimes a touch difficult to follow and inconsistent it certainly held my interest. You have to suspend the belief and just enjoy the enthusiasm that everybody has going around doing their parts in every individual investigation. The last episode I watched involved a young girl imprisoned for dealing drugs and a convict seeking compensation from the state after he was cleared of murder. The young talents are to be watched out for in the future.
I can't remember the last time I got excited about a new BBC drama. Now I it seems to have disappeared from their schedule. I thought they saved this kind of treatment for US Imports - remember how hard it was to keep track of Seinfeld & Larry Sanders...
Great cast, interesting cases (the man who killed his wife - or was it suicide), all wrapped up in a mature, adult-friendly package. This is a great antidote to all the reality TV garbage we've had to ingest recently.
If you love the law, enjoy solving a mystery, or just having a heated debate, THIS is the show for you.
