Really enjoyed that first episode. I recognise the prosecutor from the highly recommend political drama 'Spin'

Great write up of a superb drama: https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/jan/28/farewell-to-spiral-the-creme-de-la-creme-of-euro-thriller-bbc-four
Like a cross between Arsène Wenger and Columbo, foxy old Roban was one of Spiral’s most magnificent creations.

Im nearing to the end of series 4 after a recommendation on here and really enjoying it. Doesnt try to be to clever with its story lines, no massive arc going through the series as they roll on where the writers are having to get creative to make it all knit together (line of duty take note!). Good 3-4 different stories running through a series with a few overlaps in them bringing the main characters together . Proper good quality television 
Program on channel 4 tonight 11.15pm that may interest a few from this thread called Time is a killer. Think it has couple of actors from Spiral in it.

RE Spiral, apart from nearly every character having a name starting with a B, it's great.
Watching from the beginning currently.

I know! I think the middle seasons are the best. Gillou is the coolest man that ever existed!
Last night I did notice that there was dialogue and the opening credits at the same time. That was pushing it (happily I didn't miss too much whilst being annoyedIt's the concentrating levels that sets these apart

Naaaah. If there’s a wrong decision to make he’ll make it. Nowt cool about that. Started slow then fell away in horse racing parlance. I know how he feels tbh.
Series 5 another top notch watch
