Having seen Akta Manniskor aka Real Humans first, I was hoping that the Brits would do a good job. It is a different story but frankly I found it unsatisfying because while the original Series 1 of Real Humans explored so many issues in a caring realistic way that I felt that this lacked a little depth. It didn't have the original series beautiful pacing per episode, and while I love Katherine Parkinson in the IT Crowd, I thought her role as written was not very strong, especially as she is a lawyer/solicitor. Whether it was her characterization or the writing, I think it was a weak point in this series. If you don't like reading sub-titles, by all means enjoy this series. However, if you do like sub-titles by all means watch Real Humans Series 1.
