Rolling iPlayer and All 4 and iTVPlayer 2017-2018

Is this thread the only mention of Unforgotten on this board? Hadn't heard much about it but I quite liked it for a police procedural. I wouldn't say there's a lot to distinguish it, but the pacing and execution was on-point

I watched all of them not that long ago. There's something quite soothing about the neatly parcelled-out clues coming to light and guessing who dun what. Enjoyed it more than I thought I would.
I'd say it's more character-driven than your average procedural.

Yeah, we hadn't watched it at the time, but rattled through them all on Netflix and ITV player a few weeks ago. Very likeable.

That's a good point, kinder, about it being more character-driven than similar shows. It's funny because in S1 the few moments where they focus on Cass's personal life felt distracting to the main story, but by S4, I was as invested in her personal life as I was the case!

I've watched 2 episodes of Hollington Drive and it's so awful, it's mildly reminiscent of The Room (the Tommy Wiseau one)

Showtrial is very well put together, particularly if you're into the process side of things. More straightforward but better written than Vigil.
After the execrable Hollington Drive and duuuullll as ditchwater The Long Call it was v welcome.
(I've been burnt twice by trying ITV drama - is the Tower any good, anyone?)
