Let me start off by saying that this was STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to me and so I went in with high expectations and, almost from the outset, I was scratching my head wondering if it was a joke recommendation....
The acting is absolutely terrible to the point of, again, thinking someone is going to appear with a camera telling me I've been had...
The main detective (the girl from the commitments) is absolutely woeful and constantly aware - and showing it - of where the camera is, but she's by far and away the best actor in this mess.
There's a character called Norah, I'm not sure if she's Emer's superior or her PA (if you watch it you'll know what I mean) but all she does, and I mean ALL SHE DOES is stare vacantly whilst rolling her eyes like one of those dolls you get at a fairground.
Every cliche in the book is deployed and the production values are non existent. Went into this relatively excited to be getting some great TV and, having just finished episode 3 (and I'll finish the damn lot to see what happens) I cannot see this improving beyond a, very generous, 3/10.
