But DONT ever read the book unless you have a strong stomach! the BBC did tone it down to bring this version to the screen....Sadly, the N Yorkshire Police force today is still as bad as it was over 15 years ago when this was made. Equally, bad in the "Blind eye" minister who knows whats going on, but the deceased is a "pillar of the community" which makes the investigation somewhat difficult. Really good casting at all levels and within this you dont have much foul language, no sex, and a much better thriller/investigation than the very graphic book. The Yorkshire locations are well worth it-unless you happen to be "clued in" to know that you dont, for example, drive from London to Newton under Roseberry via a country road that goes from Pickering to Danby!!!! OOPS bbc
