I've been watching this on Netflix long after it first aired. It is violent, funny, intriguing and addictive. The characters are varied and believable, the standard of policing horrifying. Beat the information out of them seems to be the method! Then just when you think you know what's happening and how it is all going to end it twists out of your grip! This is just brilliant tv that keeps you watching, is intelligent and thoughtful and very clever. I loved it. Ashes to ashes next!
