I watch many British crime shows on Acorn and Britbox. I've always thought that British police/detectives appear to be the cream of the crop, doing everything by the book and respect up the chain of command. I've loved this show in many ways but have become increasingly annoyed with Ryan, Claire, Neil and Ann. Claire and Neil appear as dimwits and Ryan is a spoiled brat, manipulating all around him. Ann does not follow protocol and seems to get away with bad behavior. She is not suited to be a police officer much less a CID.
How is a police killer like Tommy allowed to freely have visitors, do all kinds of deals in prison, no heavy guarding when he goes to court? He should have been in leg and hand shackles since he is a dangerous person.
On a positive, James Norton is terrific as a sociopath. I still gave this an 8 but didn't care for it as much as the other episodes.
