Taking over the brooding thriller spot (despite last week's whimsical film) we are now being offered an Irish crime series.

In case anyone is interested.

I was enjoying it up to the last episode which I thought was bonkers, definitely leading to another series with so many unfinished threads. The baby bit was so unrealistic.

Finally watched 6

so Lenny gf escaped

mum locked detective in freezer / happy to kill her to protect her husband

wife of brother happy now has baby

whose baby was it that drug man gave her

why didn’t Swedish detective call someone to say she was locked in freezer

and the main female and partner sailed off ?

Well its so long since I watched it I looked at what i wrote.
Yes Lenny's gf escaped
I suggested that the detective would ring the local police to come and rescue her
The baby was some drug adict that owed money to the dealer, or just didn't want the baby, but wanted the money
I think the main female and partner didn't sail off they just went back to fishing

All of these scenes could be the start of new stories if there is a series 2.

Not fogetting that mum's partner turns out to have a dodgy past as well. wasn't sure if the meal was like a last supper and the two of them were going to "disappear " now that the visiting Swedish detective could tell police back in Sweden that she had found him.

But although I sort of enjoyed it the series Blue Lights was / is way better.

Thanks @IwantToRetire - couldn't work out where baby came from /whose it was

Sure they can get a fake birth certificate

Disclaimer!

Dont totally rely on my memory. I manage to not see major plot features in any number of quite simple stories.

But definitely got the feeling that they were hoping for another series. Including, which I left out, that the fish business that the brother of the trawler lady set up, is now tide into the drugs being smuggled. So the baby was also a reward. And I suspect the trawler will also now be linked because they have all been compromised.
