was looking forward to this because of the title. Oh dear, wooden acting, cliched characters and weak story line ... how did they get it so wrong?

[Smowball]

I didn't see it. Was it an old episode or a new one about when the characters were younger?

I'm actually enjoying it, am pretty shocked at how bad women were treated!

[Smowball]

Oh I see! When is it on?

[Lie-in King]

I'm really enjoying it & hope there're more early Tennison stories in the pipeline :-)

Ah lovely thankyou

its deviating from the book and the language is not quite so "ist", the book was very "70's in its language - i can see why - there would be people complaining....
Its ok, i'll keep watching it.
