I'm looking forward to this...born in a Notts pit village, brought up in Sherwood.

I saw the trailer and it resonates. ( Not the murder bit)

I bet they won't have the accent right though.. it'll sound Yorkshire.

Sounds intriguing I will definitely watch thanks

good cast, will try and catch up

@MrsLargeEmbodied starts tomorrow

I like to give a heads up 😂

I'm from an East Mids pit village so was worried about the accents (normally end up being Yorkshire) but just checked out the trailer and they seem to have it right which bodes well. Interesting to see how the areas are portrayed, expecting it to be all terraced streets and talking about the miners strike but let's see!

Yes they usually totally cock up accents

thi remember on the best and all said they line of duty bloke had a crap Scottish accent

but his was real😂😂

his London is fake

Got it taped in. Sounds like a great cast. Lesley Manville is my favourite actress

My cousin is in this!

Looking forward to this, not seen a tv drama for a while .

Bump. Started 10m ago. I was out so behind by 10m

Joanne Froggatt ( sarah) was Angela black, that was a weird drama (ITV)
David Morrissey has aged well.
Lesley Manville will always be 'Mum ' too !

Ooh who's your cousin?

I think it was good. Oh theme tune...I used to sing this ( Blackleg miners) when I was on the folk circuit.

Finally we had the murder. 35m in

so who do we think did it and why

I was going to post as we went along, but MN has been so unusable since just after 9pm that I couldn't.

Anyway, I thought it was good. I was a young adult during the miners' strike.

Ah. Watched the end and arrow man was the son. Is that right q

got confused. Doesn’t take much with me 😂😂

We're enjoying it.
I'm born and bred Notts too. Left 30 years ago. I thought some of the accents were really good. Although Alun Armstrong just sounded Yorkshire with the odd 'Duck' thrown in for good measure. He's a good actor though, great cast.

Thought it was very good, had me hooked from the start.
was hoping it might have been on iplayer so I could binge but will have to enjoy it at normal speed.

I enjoyed it great cast.

Good start - really good cast and set up, though it doesn't feel very modern despite being set in present day.

I really enjoyed tonight's episode. Not the usual gratuitous violence, although yes there was a murder. Some great actors in it too.

I thought it was good but I found the 'good cast' really distracting. I know it's sounds a bit weird but it just had everyone in it, all really familiar faces. It was difficult to think of them as characters, it was like a Children in Need night skit where they mix up two programmes as a joke.

No binging allowed on this thread 😂😂

Was the man in the taxi the sane man as the step son going to jail and we saw at end shooting and in a tent?

My wife spent the whole episode going ‘oh it’s her from Brookside, and the one from show about the womens football team and the bloke from Brassed Off… he was in Hustle wasn’t he? And what’s she been in before? Oh I remember now… and i recognise him from something…’

i actually had a look on IMDb and even Ace Bhatti makes an an appearance

The only person missing was Nottinghams very own Vicky McLure.
