A great drama base on true events. If you have not watched this you are missing a very good program. All episodes are on iPlayer, I'm up to episode 6 after watching the first two episodes live.

    I'm enjoying it, but had to watch the first episode again as the constant time shifts are very confusing. But now I'm aware of that and it's a very intriguing story. Like you, I'm watching it on iPlayer - the thing is that there are several series starting over the next couple of weeks (Traces last night on BBC) and the difficulty is going to be keeping track of each one! surprised

    The time shifts continue right to the last episode, they are not a problem once you get into the story. At the end they tell you what happened to the characters in true life which I always like to know when stories are based on true events. I am now watching Traces which also has all episodesl on iPlayer

    I binged yesterday and today and have watched till the end - so glad I persevered, because it turned out to be an absorbing series. And yes, I thought the summary of each character at the end was very appropriate.

    Now got to concentrate on Traces, Pembrokeshire Murders, The Bay etc etc! surprised

    Brilliant series, read a review which said to persevere past episode 2.   So glad I did, it was great and liked the update at the end. 

    Also watched Traces which was also gripping and very good.
