    Just binge watched it. Absolutely brilliant.
    Different and funny at times.
    Not what I was expecting at all.
    Well worth watching if you have not done so already.

    I'm just watching Episode 4, like you say it's funny but brutal at times

    Watched it all. Has a ring of Killing Eve to it, but faster paced and more dark humour.

    Got it on the list to watch. A friend of mine's son has a brief appearance in it in episode 5, so I need to look out for that, if nothing else.

    Wonder if the female lead realised how many times she would have to swear in the script

    Have you watched Kin ? Set in Ireland the F word is used by every character most of the drama.

    That’s sealed it … will watch it soon.

    A recommendation by Ian and your comparison with the brilliant Fargo series is good enough for me !!

    Thanks for the recommendation Ian. Started it today. I loved it, though my missus was a bit freaked out by parts!

    Just started watching it. Was cringing in the first 5 minutes as what happened to Janet in the factory nearly happened to me at Barnsley Canister Company.

    If they took out the F words an episode would be 15mins long.

    Ex-London’s Burning fireman (nicknamed Technique) Craig Fairbrass is very good as the Henchman. Cold-blooded killer but a sensitive soul underneath.

    Im into Ep 4 and lapping if up
