Alec Hardy is a treasure

In this third season and by now, we've come to understand and embrace DI Alec Hardy's world weary outlook on life and strong ethical code of conduct. But David Tennant's delivery of "This case makes me ashamed to be a man" in this episode takes the cake. There are a lot of similar TV detectives like Hardy with same make and mold, but David Tennant's portrayal of this character is part of what makes Broadchurch such a compelling and enthralling watch.

This series so far allows Alec Hardy to be at his best again, as he pours everything he has into not only figuring out the "how", but also the "why". The quote above stops you in your track with how profoundly invested he is in this case.
