Ive loved the first 4 series and love the location but tbh I thought last nights episode tried a bit too hard and was a bit cliched. Im sure it will improve. Im definitely going to sail there one day.

Such a big tough man, with your clenched fist avatar, but as is typical of your ilk, when the going gets tough you run like ****. Digby’s a little boys name.

I enjoyed it but I felt in the last couple of series the crime plot has simply acted as a backdrop for more domestic soap opera style drama.
Certainly enjoyable though and I’d watch another series for sure.

Enjoyed it, but thought the final episode was a bit disappointing.
Probably being harsh, but will still look forward to the next series.
In the meantime, Line of Duty starts on 31st March; we shall be watching!

Enjoyable series, did worry about Alice's accent in the last scenes with Perez on the beach, thought it sounded odd to say the least. So, checked up to find that Catherine Walker ( Alice) is in fact Irish! So, could they not get a Scottish actress to play a Scottish girl? odd.

Such a scruffy bugger is Perez!
I don't thinkI would have given up quite so easily on Alice!

He's a patriotic Scotsman, he could never plant an Irish girl.

Enjoying series six …despite the murders and the weather I’d quite like to live there

Got a bit of a backlog on the Sky Box, no spoilers please

BTW Tosh is my favourite

It's being released week by week, the old fashioned way. They have run out of books by the author so this series has been credited with " Based on the characters created by...... " Still its really good viewing, Jimmy Perez has a burning commitment to see the case through and that justice is done....for everyone involved. Counter that with the two Met Police that took photos of murder victims and shared them in a WhatsApp group!

Three episodes currently

Have downloaded episode 1 but have loads of other catch up TV to watch.

Prefer it when you can binge watch the lot.

I believe they also filmed back to back series so another one may be out early next year

Gotta love Doogie. Great series that has picked back up this time round after a couple of rather lacklustre, soap opera style series’.

It's one of the seasons that actually has legs to carry on, unlike some of the regurgitated guff out there.

I just hope that Perez gets a lucky break between now and the end of season 7, poor bugger ! he never seems to get the girl.
