I don't watch too many series, but this one really hit the spot. Finished it last night and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it

[@CrabappleKing]

They are filming season 2 down my road currently. I can see 3 prop police cars. Maybe they'll do a chase!

[@iino07]

This series is phenomenal, my partner and i rewatch it time to time: we cry, laugh and get goosebumps with each episode

[@BinarySecond]

This series was brilliant

[@ceili]

Her father stole the show for me - 'and I have clamidia' 😂😂😂😂

[@deborahkelly1948]

🤣😂

[@countrygal0831]

I freaking love this series and have watched all six episodes more than once!!! Are there going to be more??

[@scouser2010ify]

Yes season two will be co produced by showtime so it will also air in America so I think there will most likely be a season 3 after that

[@countrygal0831]

@@scouser2010ify There HAVE to be more. It's so freaking clever and hilarious. "F off and die....oh". And the scene with the fox! Omg!

[@scouser2010ify]

countrygal0831 right? One of my favourite shows now can’t wait for season two

[@spicyramen5135]

There better be

[@lesley9989]

​@@scouser2010ify really! Great

[@scouser2010ify]

I like her she was good in episodes and this show looks funny too and since I know people in prison it’s a good insight I can’t imagine it’s easy coming back from a regimented life

[@petermullen5479]

This series is the serious but extremely funny and cleverly wrote which daisy co wrote this series! She has a wicked sense of humour ❤❤❤ love her!!!

[@carting9024]

this series is absolute quality, i love it ❤️

[@jimsmith1998]

I've only just started watching this, and think it's brilliant, there is something about Billy that amazes me, so calm and laid back.

[@gregXxo]

The actor is in a movie called Ali & Ava that looks like it might be good

[@mushroomhead3619]

I liked the swearing old Indian lady! XD

[@TheDecline99]

Absolutely brilliant.

[@tomasm1233]

Loved it!

[@scouser2010ify]

I watched the whole season in one go it’s brilliant dark but funny good watch

[@simonjones7727]

I'm really enjoying this. I love the central performance and the location is so European and quirky.

[@saiko_1]

Underrated!

[@blackmagic1371]

I watched this for the first time the other night and I really enjoyed it (Black Comedy)😵

[@ditsydaisys]

why does she text in all caps though 😂😂

[@scouser2010ify]

She was in prison for 20 years she probably only just got a phone 😂

[@scouser2010ify]

I just noticed you meant the mother 😂😂

[@cutepumpkin4744]

Why are background sounds so much louder in British tv lol?

[@redlady935]

Good observation. It adds to the realism

[@gorbe-mobarez]

[@noorkalumba]

19 years in prison. Jeez

[@hamzakhamlichi190]

😂😂😂😂

[@eahannan]

Exceptional. Will there be more? You kind of invest in these characters

[@dampri3182]

That’s garden waste.

[@Beautyinthebreakdown.]

I’ve just realised there is season two I thought why do they keep advertising an old show.. SEASON 2! I’m so exciting. The ending… did she kill the wrong women.. I’m confused by how it ended

[@peckerdecker]

Looks interesting..... For a modern BBC comedy..... Might get the DVD

[@alicecat1187]

Does anyone know the song in the beginning?

The right question gets a good answer

[@katew.176]

Showtime! I love it!

[@V-13579]

Get a VPN and watch it on UK Netflix :)

[@saraj8843]

She sounds like siri

[@JesusGodHolySpirit3]

I hope I get to watch this lol it sounds funny lol

[@gripitl6878]

She looks like Penny Marshall.

[@stoplisteningtothestatic7078]

SPOILER : can someone explain why nathan sets the food truck on fire and tries to frames miri at the end

[@ohk8855]

Because he wanted to claim insurance on the damage and he knew that they would believe that Miri actually did it because of her track record with the police

[@ohk8855]

But he admits it in the last episode, i don’t think it was anything personal against her it was just him being selfish and wanting the insurance money

[@Sarcastix7]

Is she in the TV show Episodes? The one with Matt LeBlanc?

[@Sarcastix7]

@Paul O I knew I recognised her. She's was very funny in Episodes. Definitely gonna give this a watch

[@flala2261]

Yes!

[@bibimohamed5689]

Wish this eas on netflix

[@aliciaf4744]

It is now

[@IndelibleHD]

"Quite gappy"

[@OmegaBlack85]

So far, so Trisha

[@sirjimmysavileo.b.e1947]

Glad Sir Jimmy here never ended up in a cell though, Hey BBC, Sir Jimmy here has your lost original Doctor Who tapes sorry I took them to watch with my literal GIRLfriends! How shall I return them?

[@MsKaz1000]

But why was she charged with murder it should have been accidental manslaughter she never meant to kill her it was accidental, not premeditated

[@keelanc1681]

Victims dad was a crooked cop so...

[@tescoprimark1299]

Watched it last night... she got a job eventually..... a potential romance with her neighbour in coming episodes

[@tutcarmoon]

Why spoil it for everyone

[@DavidSmith-oy4of]

@@tutcarmoon Saved me a couple hours.

[@Isebelle13]

@@tutcarmoon I don't think it really spoiled anything. It didn't give anything away that other trailers hadn't hinted at already lol

[@Rikeilan]

How is this *Comedy* Drama?

[@Rikeilan]

@Paul O Yeah I watched the trailer but it certainly doesn't seem comedic to me

[@tutcarmoon]

It's English humour. Satire and awkward

[@Rikeilan]

@@tutcarmoon Well, you're not too wrong 😂 I've been living in England for 3 years now and the people I talk to have good humor. But I do think this is what their TV has to offer most of the time, indeed

[@runningfromabear8354]

@@Rikeilan It's brilliant! I love her Mum hiding the knives as though she's become some hardcore criminal and her trying to get through the job interview without saying she was in prison.

BBC and a Michael Jackson poster why am I not surprised..🙄

[@orphanoforbit7588]

She's such an unlikeable character, one episode was more than enough.

[@adaswedentr]

how would you react if you were unfairly put in prison for 20 years

[@heythisanimalcantalk]

How is she unlikeable in any way what

[@TripleR250]

This show would have been better as a 100% serious drama... I really liked the storyline of her doing 18 years for a muder that she wasn't really at fault for and her struggling to be accepted after returning but I felt the comedy ruined the serious aspect of the storyline.
