Guardian a bit lukewarm, not that I trust the Guardian TV reviews... Crime review – Irvine Welsh’s first TV drama is a dreich and plodding affair
This Edinburgh cop show is disappointingly conventional stuff from the author known for his exuberance and excess – and its dialogue is deathly
3 starsSome decidedly ropey performances don’t help anything, but I am aware that it is at least partly disappointment speaking. As a Welsh fan, you have high hopes for anything that comes from his pen, and the prospect of a self-adaptation of one of his books raised them, perhaps unsustainably. Ignore the name and the potential and it’s a serviceable cop show. It’s the waste that feels like a crime.www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/nov/18/review-irvine-welsh-tv-drama-dreich-plodding-deathly![](https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/bc5ea205c2d461980b1ab999a9019f55dc833bc7/0_416_6240_3744/master/6240.jpg?width=620&quality=45&dpr=2&s=none)

I watched it for three minutes with no subtitles. Impossible. 😄
