That's great news.
I will look forward to those.
I really enjoyed the first one and I imagine if they have three episodes planned they can really raise the quality further.
I wonder if the three episodes cover one story or be three separate stories.
Im sure they will be good whichever path they choose.

I hope they are better than the one they already showed. If it hadn’t been filmed in Brighton we would have switched off halfway through. Daft story and unusually flat performance from John Simm. In fairness he didn’t have much to work with though.

Sorry Nev, got to disagree, thought it was excellent, and the starting point for a long term ITV series, along the lines of Frost, Vera and Morse.

Completely agree. I havent read the books but l do generally like these type of shows so had high hopes, but I thought this was rubbish. A stupid storyline - much better found elsewhere I'm afraid. I wont be watching again :down:

I thoroughly enjoyed the first one but the woman chief police officer was like a cartoon characterisation of every negative you could imagine from a leader and a murder investigator - dreadful and unbelievable.

I thought it was average - book much better - although the books all merge after a while - very samey.

If it wasn't set in Brighton I'm not sure I'd bother.

They have another story already in the can don't they? When will they be airing that l wonder. Am l right in saying that ITV have only shown the one thus far?

Yes only one at the moment. And yes I think some of the second series has already been filmed so I think they're resuming rather than starting.

What is your place of work if you're allowed to say? It might give a clue as to what part of the story for us that know the books.

They were filming near Danny House for a few days. Hacked off the locals by blocking the lanes.

Ah, that takes me back nearly 20 years ago when they were filming 'Wimbledon' with Paul Bettany and Kirsten Dunst on my street at the time (Powis Road in Seven Dials)

Know the turned Headroom Barbers into a bookies and left a mighty fine new floor for the owners to enjoy!

Any yes, they did block up the road for a few days selfish buggers :)
