    • Trivia
      Dutch public broadcaster KRO decided not to show the series' sixth, seventh and eighth seasons because they were considered too violent. In general, the corporation regretted the tendency for British detective series, which they were famous for showing on Dutch TV, for becoming increasingly explicit and less humane, main character-driven and plot-driven, in the sense of drawing the viewer into the investigative process.

    Wish someone would murder Mike Walker!
    One of the most annoying, arrogant and hateful characters on TV. How this guy came to be a Superintendent beggars belief. Him aside, this is a great show, well worth bingeing. Unfortunately series five shares so many similarities with Prime Suspect 2 I wondered how it ever got made? In series 10 there is also a very similar plot to another Prime Suspect story.
