Is it worth starting?
This is 5 seasons deep — English mystery with a drama streak. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.

- you take the score at face value — 50 votes is a thin sample
- you want something that ends tonight — there are 5 seasons of it
- this is the shared-living-room pick — the certificate is 18+
- Why
- Currently 7.8/10 from 50 ratings, which is a good sign this early.
- Skip if
- a backlog this size is the opposite of what you're after
- Best for
- A proper binge, once you've got the weeks for it
