It was excellent. David Morrissey in the lead role was ( as usual ) brilliant. Such a good reliable actor in these kind of roles.

By:
I watched it.
Not a big fan of his, but not bad for an opening episode. His Mrs is a dead ringer for my best mates wife. I never knew that about Manchester taxis, can't pick up passengers on the street. |

call me a taxi 24 Sep 14 17:14
I never knew that about Manchester taxis, can't pick up passengers on the street. Isn't this the same everywhere? Only black cabs are allowed to pick up passengers off the street round here too. People do refer to private hire cars as taxis, or even cabs, which may be the cause of any confusion. |

By:
Hire cars were called minicabs in east London.
Fack knows why, none of them were minis. I never tried to flag one down in the street, so I don't know if it's the same there. |

vehicles carrying a hackney licence can be hailed anywhere and wait on ranks at stations etc., non hackney vehicles can only be pre-booked

I don't want to go to Hackney.

David Morrissey and Sheridan Smith probably the best in any drama.
Morrissey was brilliant in Blackpool....well worth watching,if not seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUJpaRbFbxw |

By:
David Morrissey is a very good actor and seems to specialise in playing disillusioned, frustrated middle aged men. So I can see why he would be popular on this forum
|
|
By:
isnt he playing nearly the same character as the bloke on the train last year,middle aged crisis turning to crime this time last time it was another woman
|
|
By:
Enjoyable ,but not believable drama.
Spoilt by the ham fisted part where he was unable to stop 2 smashed out of their heads young woman stealing his nights takings ....cringeworthy. |
|
By:
Has he changed number plates after being chased by police?
If not, why not? All a bit (no, a lot) unbelievable. |
|
By:
And why were the police chasing him in the first place?
Maybe I missed something. |
|
By:
I think his "boss" said that the plates were untraceable.
He was speeding. |

Thing the girls weren't really drunk. They effectively mugged him. One distracted him, whilst the other stole the cash. Clever scam imo. |
|
By:
Didn't she hit him on the head from behind with the heel of her shoe?
|
|
By:
Nah, don't take it from him, mate.
He's a knobhead. No, honestly, he's a knobhead. Ronnie, Ronnie, listen. He's a knobhead. Ronnie, listen to me. The man is a knobhead... Knobhead. He's a knobhead, Ronnie. Listen to me, what I'm saying. |

I think we now know why the boss is called The Horse

Don't trust DC Danny Glaze. Didn't he run off with loads of stolen money when he worked in Sunhill?
|
|
By:
That's right he did, wasn't he married to Julie Goodyear?

Haven't seen any of this yet so am gonna start with episode 1 now on catch up
also liking Kidnap & Ransom about the hostage negotiator on ITV encore , 1st part still available & worth a watch  |
|
By:
Just finished watching episode 3.Very entertaining and gripping piece of drama.David Morrissey was excellent (as per) and i can thoroughly recommend a download.9/10.
|
|
By:
Really good series but a very tame & poor ending in my opinion.

Always seems to be the way with these two and three-part dramas. I was expecting a more dramatic ending or a final twist. 'Inside Men' was another great series with a very disappointing conclusion. |
|
By:
very good enjoyed it although the 3rd episode was very rushed
could have got another few episodes out of it - showing the court trial and the aftermath a dissapointing end to a promising drama |
|
By:
PM - I was going to (semi-seriously) suggest there could be a sequel
|
|
By:
yes, i was thinking one of the leader of the gang would have a gun to his sons head when he turned up because they had rumbled him.
|
|
By:
I definitely thought there was something lurking at the service station
|
|
By:
nick i think they missed a trick by rushing it over the 3
do you like your crime dramas? If so may i suggest Ray Donovan? best thing on telly |
|
By:
better than Gomorrah??
|
|
By:
I'm gonna watch the final episode now so trying not to read Pugs posts , lol
|
|
By:
Overated imo, not too much action.
|
|
By:
I agree , though enjoyed it these mini dramas always start really well then seem to end in a ball of fire , the acting is decent so maybe they're just badly written or rushed out in the first place
Inside Men & the one a few months back with Tommy kidnapping the rich daughter were better though imo |
|
By:
They should take a bit more time & make them 6 episodes instead
|
|
By:
Very disappointing end to the Driver - which had been quite good. Agree about Ray Donovan, thats very good
