Yep I watched it and thought it was excellent.

Hope that was just a trial/pilot three parter and that they make a proper series.

Wasn't the girl the "actress" in Hot Fuzz ?

Yeah I thought it was good. The set up of the story is a bit of a cliché but funny anyway. Echoes of Dempsey and Makepeace.

One of my clients is the distributor for this program and so I get to purloin copies of the series in advance. Its not bad so far, a pretty decent effort at a simple genre of tv making. Stick with it, its not brain teasing but a bit of fun
