This is a cracking dark tale of life behind the blue line. Martin is so good in this role. You believe in his ability to kick arse even with his size because he's embraced this character one hundred percent. I do get annoyed when people refer to size. One of the hardest men in the world was small. Bruce Lee, not counting lots of others. Small and stocky is often far more deadly than tall and skinny or with gym muscles. For a start they can't move fast. I digress. His Scouse accent coming from that area like I do is superb. Nowt wrong with it lad. None of the usual crap that people label us with either. Eh eh eh yeah Thanks Harry Enfield I can't say too much because I don't want to spoil a minute of it. One comment his mate Carl one of the tabloids said he had a dodgy hair cut. I wonder how old that person is, who reviewed it. He obviously is wearing a scouse perm and like some men in the city decided to keep his 80's look. Some of us do that. Get stuck in our favourite era and why shouldn't we? There are quite a few surprises and every cast member is so skilled you become drawn into the story you forget where you are. I binge watched on BBCi player and glad I did. If you're expecting Dixon of Dock green don't watch it. If you like dark, realistic and enough to make us question our choices in life then go for it.
