Is anyone else watching this police thriller? I am finding quite interesting but often find myself confused as the story basically runs backwards, although not completely backwards as we would know the killer in the first five minutes!!!

    I watched the first episode David...tried desperately to get it together but gave up before the end. I enjoy police thrillers but sadly didn't take to this one.

    I must admit it does take some getting used to but as the series has progressed your mind adjusts to this rewinding of time. As with lots of police series it is also showing up flaws within the ranks and it's difficult to work out whether this will have relevance to the outcome of the story. I am generally not a great TV watcher, apart for news programmes, but I enjoy a series that takes some working out. I used to enjoy Scott and Bailey because of the way they constructed the forensic interviewing technics they used which I imagine are more like real life than the hard cop/soft cop method?

    Have been watching, difficult to follow to start with but getting used to the rewinding  of time now and enjoying the series. Think I read it was written by the people who wrote The Missing? It's different from a lot of crime drama, makes a change.

    Well it finished last night. Did anyone else stick with it? I thought it quite clever the way the story was constructed albeit a bit confusing at times. I suppose we should have been more suspicious when the we realised the the police women was talking to her dead mother in her flat. I suspect that sort of story telling will be a one off, but who knows. What I don't quite understand was the other murder when the girl hit her mother over the head and how it connect to the story, perhaps I wasn't paying attention for a split second?
