I’m just catching up with the first episode. So far all of the ‘detectives’ seem pretty hopeless, they keep talking over the ‘witnesses’ and not really picking up on the blatant opportunities presented to delve into more possibly relevant stuff.

I’ll deffo watch the next episode though.

I tried it. I didn’t last long. It’s not for me, give me a good crime drama, crime fiction novel or crime documentary.

I am watching it. I couldn't believe how many of them contaminated the crime seen by walking through blood and picking up evidence that hadn't been printed etc. Am hoping that they do better on the next episode

I watched it on catch up last night. I am more interested in the story and what has happened than the detectives and their process (or lack of it) - it was a bit shout at the telly for me. Will try episode 2 and see.

I watch it and think ‘I could definitely do better than that’ but I suspect that’s the point 😂

I tried watching it but god it was boring AF.

I was unsure on the first episode but thought it picked up in the second episode. I found it interesting to compare the different approaches taken by the four teams, and the resulting very different levels of success/progress.

My main issue with it so far is that none of the groups have been given any kind of guidance since they aren't trained... yet are being spoken to like qualified and trained investigators who should already know the errors they have 'apparently' made. The people supposedly monitoring them, just talk over them and aren't actually very good at their own roles. And that is entirely avoiding the awful acting which doesn't make sense to the entire programme and makes it feel disjointed especially given how hard they are being on the contestants to 'do their job correctly' when it's quite obviously not real.
