It might seem unfair to write a review after only 2 episodes of a 4 episode serial, but I find this incomprehensible and above all dull. The two things may be connected. The direction makes no attempt at coherence in the story line. That might be OK if it were exciting. But it is not. I'm surprised by the high score. I'd be even more surprised if many people stay with this to the end. There are many perfectly good actors in series who could have been doing something useful with their time. The hackneyed plot situation (ageing cop becomes obsessed with a case and keeps investigating after he retires) needs something special to maintain interest. Most of the characters seem unpleasant enough to have done something nasty. But the pace is so numbingly slow I doubt if many people with stay to the end to find out.
