I really wanted to enjoy it but it’s just not working for me, I did 3-4 episodes and lost interest, started again 6 months later, same again!

It’s annoying because I got to the second series of Game of thrones and lost interest in that as well, must just be me

It came out a few years back and was Looking forward to it.......then Turned off after 20? Minutes! The Attempt at speaking in a brummie Accent was laughable. Have they mastered it?

I've only just got into this myself. I'd seen a lot of good reviews over the length of the show but until 3-4 weeks ago never watched it. I then noticed it was on i-player & thought I'd give it a bash.
I went through Series 1 in 2-3 days and then had a break before starting Series 2, got to episode 5 of that now.
I've seen that Series 5 is airing soon so I doubt Ill catch up in time to watch that live in sequence.

A lot of long-running series like this start of great then peter out as the characters get stretched beyond where they should be to enable new situations/plots, hoping this is OK for another couple of series before that happens.

Some decent music within the shows I've watched too Nick Cave PJ H etc.

Started promising but went downhill and unnecessarily complicated and far fetched when they started getting involved with the Russians.

Absolutely brilliant series
Watched all seasons in last 3-4 weeks..
It has its comedic elements.. Arthur and Alfie are two of my favourites
Not sure what was too confusing about the Russian connection
Season 4 is fantastic
Nick cave is one of my favourite artists which makes the programme even better

Fantastic series which got better as it progressed. Can't wait for series 5 to start in the next few weeks.
