Tom Brannick is back on the case, he and DS McGovern are investigating the murky death of an accountant, who's believed to have had links to the underworld.
I was quite surprised to see that Brannick had managed to escape justice, and as it stands, he's got away with murder.
It seemed a little odd to bring this show back, not that series one was bad at all, it just felt as though it had reached a natural conclusion, but back it came, and looking ahead, there's a third series in the works as well.
It's been so long since I saw series one, that I'd forgotten chunks of it, a longer reminder would have been a help.
Not bad, gritty and moody, decent, but not hugely absorbing, I'm sure it will open up, and pick up the pace as it develops. It felt like we were missing way too many pieces of the puzzle to even start putting things together.
Nesbitt continued to do mean and moody very effectively, I thought the episode was boosted by the excellent Victoria Smurfit.
A solid start, but not one to get you desperate for episode 2.
6/10.
