Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for crime-drama fans. If you loved Luther or Unforgotten, start here.
The mood: Dark and gritty.
The pace: 5 seasons: a few months of evenings, episodes of about 45 minutes, about 17 hours in all.
What might put you off: Nothing much for most grown-ups.

Set in London, each episode is a self-contained story, starting with a news report, then following the team of three detectives as they investigate the circumstances the crime. The cases themselves are hard-hitting with contemporary themes, such as the search for a soldier with PTSD, a murder that has been made to look like an assisted suicide and the gang rape of a young teenager.
