I've been binge watching one crime drama series after another, and this one gets a solid 8 from me. It kept my interest, and I liked Elaine Cassidy on "No Offence" so I decided to give this show a go, and I was glad I did. One of the best things I can say about it is that it lacked some of the more unbelievable moments that are in so many other British crime series. The cast all did a decent job, even if Cassidy did tend to over-act some of her parts. One of the few off-putting things for me was the casting of Kate Moran as the American government worker. She had a very noticeable French accent and didn't sound anything like an "American". In real life I understand she's French but has lived in NY. I get that some members of the US government have foreign accents, but when the show went to such great lengths to paint her as "the American", even going so far as to give her the nickname, "Stars and Stripes", they should have picked an actor who didn't have a French accent for the role.
