I Absolutely Love This Show!
2 January 2022
I absolutely love this show... I'm a fan of crime/ detective shows especially one's that whilst focusing on solving the case and catching the killer pay attention to the characters their lives and relationships (but it is not done in an overly dramatic way which is brilliant)!

I'm a huge fan of period dramas and they really capture the era well!

Sadly, I wasn't 100% into the show after a character leaves, but I found both later episodes of this season and the spinoff (San Francisco) are still remarkably enjoyable although the character is still missed.

A feminist show highlighting how the war left women, especially smart and capable women "high and dry" and after being allowed to excel and use their intelligence they're told to go back to normal life and not discuss their pasts. Therefore, the show begins with Susan an everyday housewife bored and lonely using her brains to follow new articles on a recent murderer.
