Warning: Spoilers
The 2014 series was superb television,and I thought reached an unrepeatable height.

Nearly a decade on I am happy to be proved wrong.

Mesdames Lancashire and Finneran have some hard - lived years under their belts as the sisters united but divided by the tragedies they have shared.

Sociopathic killer M J. Norton has lost none of his deranged menace and terrifying presence in the passing years.

He is a living advertisement for capital punishment though I doubt that is a 'woke' view.

Catherine's grandson (courtesy of rapist - murderer Mr. Norton) is a confused ands vulnerable adolescent targeted by a - freak teacher to be 'rescued' and rewired.

A creepy Pharmacist(Mr. A Shah) is blackmailed by local gang bosses to supply drugs. They also plan to free Mr Norton from jail presumably not to make over their garden.

Catherine herself is now on the verge of retirement - a bad day for the Yorkshire Old Bill that'll be you mark my words.

With all her knowledge and experience why isn't she a high -ranking officer? Simple - she didn't want to be.

Boots on the ground policing is what she does best.

She knows everybody on her patch - they know her.

That's how it used to be;how it should be.

Respect,Catherine - you've got it from them and you've got it from me.
