I love it. It gets more and more ludicrous each series but I can't tear myself away from it.

Very much enjoyed them all being air accident investigators whilst the actual investigator stood there nodding along Hmm

I cant watch it. Boss’ wife is pretty much top of the tree pathologist and says its less than 1% accurate

I enjoy it but the absurdity of the inaccuracies drives me mental

I do love Emilia Fox but not sure about the hair colour!? Think it ages her.

Of course it isn’t accurate. Most programmes involving lawyers aren’t always accurate either. Or women giving birth. It’s tv. It’s pretty rubbish but I love it. Grin

I’ve never watched anything more depressing in my whole entire life.
Not even drooling over Jack helps.

They never seem to have passcodes on their mobiles or laptops in these programmes.

Why didn't the mum tell the police her kid was back so they could look for him?

Some SPOILERS (but you shouldnt read threads on programmes you haven't watched yet). That was better than usual. My superficial husband was lamenting Amelia Fox's hair colour change but I didn't think it changed her that much although I stopped fancying Viggo M once he didn't look like Aragorn so am probably just as bad.
At first I thought they were going with a standard BBC baddie group of "far right extremists" but the eventual villain was a more interesting and brave (for the BBC) move

Maybe I missed something as I was getting sleepy, but I couldn't work out what was supposed to be going on with the tedious American boyfriend. Any ideas?

@Equanimitas, he was being weird because supposed to be on the plane Hmm. The American ambassador guy who died in the crash had asked EF’s annoying bf (who was an old friend and diplomatic colleague) to go along/do the job in his place (I forget which) and he declined.

Agree the American boyfriend is tedious. And she keeps taking personal calls at work.

Agree the American boyfriend is dysfunctional and a wet blanket and Nikki is unprofessional fussing over him at work. I wish they could do stories without her love life getting tangled in the plot.
