1. Have an idea about a character of South Asian descent living in the UK who finds herself in the middle of police politics (could be quite interesting).
2. Find a bunch of pretty talented actors to star in your series (I hope we all can agree on this point).
3. Make half of the characters stupid, the other half of them racist, also make the main character the object of constant racist remarks, but let her suffer in silent dignity.
4. I think we forgot something. What could it be? Ah yes, writing. But it's such a hard work writing interesting and realistic dialogues, isn't? So maybe let's omit this part. Who even cares, am I right? We have racist characters - what else do you need?
5. Done. Ladies and gentlemen, we have another brilliant ITV series.
6. If someone offers some critique, call them names and pretend like they simply do not understand the plight of people of color.
