A team of rookie Officers join The Belfast Police, after their initial training is completed, they're thrown straight into the thick of things. The Streets are mean, the threat, very real.
It wasn't long before a second series was announced, and if you watch even a single episode, you will understand why, you don't get many like this.
There is a harsh realism about this show, yes it's a cop show, but somehow it feels very different to what is usually presented, they show the job of The Police as being far from glamorous, it's shown as being intensely pressured and virtually impossible.
Episodes one, two and three were very good, episode four blew my mind, after that it became the drama highlight of the year.
Don't expect any half baked romance stories, that's not what this show is about.
It initially focuses on the trio of rookies, and every single one of them plays a key role, but the mix of regulars are all terrifiic. Gerry is perhaps my favourite of them, a no nonsense, Maverick, brave and supportive as they come, Jen undergoes the biggest transformation, from lazy good for nothing, to hero, she's impressive.
9/10.
