Help me oh wise mumsnetters. I've watched and loved:-
Top of the Lake
The Killing
The Fall
The Bridge
Happy Valley
Collateral
Homeland

What else would I love? I generally like ones with a female lead.

Line of duty, some series have stronger focus on female characters than others but it's a great programme.

Madonnasmum · 02/03/2018 21:39

Sooooo jealous that you've got LOD to watch! 3 series to see. There's a new one by the same writers called Save Me on sky but not seen it yet.
McMafia? No female lead but an interesting insight into Russian mafia and stars the hottie bad boy from Happy Valley. Very glamorous production.

Marcella, available on Netflix or the ITV hub.

midsomermurderess · 02/03/2018 22:09

The Tunnel, the Anglo/French take on the Bridge is good. Some series on All4 are pretty good too, gathered under Walter Presents. I like Before We Die, Eyewitness and Dead Beautiful.

Danglingmod · 02/03/2018 22:10

Modus on bbc4.

Em308 · 02/03/2018 22:35

Line of Duty is excellent. I used to like Scott and Bailey. Wire in the Blood was very good too.

frostyfingers · 03/03/2018 09:50

No female lead but Dead Beautiful on All4/Walter Presents is fab. Features the lovely Gilou from Spiral.....nuff said!

wheresmyphone · 03/03/2018 10:02

If you can find it Bodies is excellent. Written by same guy as Line of Duty.

MustTidyUpMustTidyUp · 03/03/2018 10:31

Just watched 7 seconds on Netflix. Slow starter but worth sticking with. Reminded me of The Killing.

PainSnail · 03/03/2018 12:04

Broadchurch?

Witnesses. Loved it. There are 2 series (6 episodes each) and its French with subtitles.

gutrotweins · 03/03/2018 23:08

Before we Die on all4 Walter Presents.
Serious eyes-closed and fingers-in-ears stuff, as characters lurch from one near miss to the next... and great twist at the end.

gutrotweins · 03/03/2018 23:09

Oh - and Before We Die has a female lead!

AdultHumanFemale · 03/03/2018 23:15

Modus
Rebecka Martinsson Arctic Murders on More4

fussychica · 04/03/2018 08:00

Sr Avila or Maltese: the Mafia Dectective on Walter Presents/All4 both excellent.

Tuscansausage · 04/03/2018 08:08

Fargo ... brilliant!

BIWI · 04/03/2018 08:09

Spiral - 6 series for you to watch!
