About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gritty, character-driven British police series with lots of cases and station drama, especially if you like The Tower or Blue Heelers; Not for you if you want fast-paced action or minimal personal storylines.
Pros: gripping police cases; realistic street-level feel; strong ensemble drama | Cons: uneven later seasons; soapier personal plots; some predictable episodes
