After the first series managed to unite the country somehow this second series was always going to face some backlash from people who felt that it hadn't met the very high standards set.
I don't think this second series was bad, it just tried to juggle too many plots and characters.
There's no denying though that it is well written and performed, with this episode being a fine example of that. It's tense, it's edgy, but I admire the way the writer also manages to mine some humour into the proceedings too.
Enjoy 'Broadchurch', whether it be series one or two, it stands above so many other dramas.
