To have thought Happy Valley was a gentle female led police show set in the picturesque Yorkshire dales?

[Greatly]

Something like Doc Martin, but with a female lead.

I finally got round to watching the first season, thinking it would be a calming, relaxing show that would help me fall asleep.

Ended up binging the first season and still feeling slightly traumatised! How did i get it so wrong?!

Please no spoilers as i loved it and cant wait to watch the next two although hoping they are a bit less violent 😂

Ive just checked and its defiantly still on iPlayer.
That photo is the Virgin Store, if you press home on your Virgin Remote then go to the Apps section BBC iPlayer can be accessed there.

I remember a friend of mine who likes lighter programmes, after watching a couple of episodes of the first series "IT'S NOT HAPPY!"

😍Same here.
I finished re-watching season 2 yesterday.
"What a shit week" understatement of the year.

Honestly I can only hear/understand one word in 20 that Moaning Myrtle says. She’s ruined season two for me.

I watch it with subtitles 😂

I actually thought the same! Was pleasantly surprised.

Thank you! You've managed to get a few I've not watched yet 😊

I've often gone with whatever iPlayer suggests and it's picked some weird ones. 😳 I'm currently strangely working my way through the very not gritty "New Tricks" which somehow passed me by at the time it was originally aired. 😂

I'm adding Vera, Vigil, Bloodlands and Scott and Bailey to my list of things to check out.I need to finish Inside Man as well. 🤔

Btw I'm not even ironing, just dealing with a seemingly never ending tide of clean stuff to sort fold and possibly persuade 3 kids to put away 🙄

Can't stand her voice and way about her, it's like fingernails on a chalkboard. But I suppose she fits the character well.

I don't like how they scripted the young Ann would be interested in the balding ugly old dodgy cop! No fucking chance.
