Luther anyone? Ok I know it's only half way through but WHAT A BIG FAT CLICHE OF A PROGRAMME!

[Nevergoogle]

Please let it get better.

is his accent his real one - seems a bit forced brit

So far a waste of good talent, the script is poor

Fabhead that is his real accent

oh NO, really? i haven't started watching it yet, am about to. it's got such a great cast...

really good cast, the direction and production seem good quality but it's a bit like watching die hard set in london.

any minute now somebody is going to get stuck on the toilet with a bomb under them.

gutted. i've purposely not watched this cos i want to watch it with the rest of the world for once. adore idris elba. i did a bit at unconventional genius maverick detective, i must say... but ruth wilson is in it and she is my favourite duckface ever.

i think it mightbe his real accent - am used to seeing him in the Wire with US accent - I think he was out there for a long time, just wondering if the Brit one was overdone as a result. I have only seen him in The Wire so it just seems weird.

yes very ducky!!

I can't cope with String talking like that (even though it's his real accent)!

oh yes, they are all very beautiful.

still waiting for the clever twist to break it away from the usual format.

his accent is FINE, what are you all talking about?

Ahhhh duck face I couldn't put a name to what she reminded me of. I do think she's a great actress though.

I've seen quite a few interviews with him and he always sounds the same tbh but it must sound strange if you've only seen him in the wire. I didn't watch it but I was told he was amazing in it and fooled the american audiences into believing he was from there.

gosh his eyes really are quite lovely. oooooh, paul mcgann! i'd forgotten he was in it.

The writing is very poor isn't it. Disappointing waste of a cast, like that Freefall thing last year (credit crunch drama with Mayor Carcetti)

oooo a glimpse of light

was that the one that sarah harding was surprisingly okay in?

i'm liking the yawn thing? am i just rubbish at this? it seems to me like a clear attempt to sell into the US market.

Yes, that was the one aitch - I forgot Sarah Harding was (surprisingly OK) in it. It got hyped out of existence but turned out to be shite

the yawn thing made DH and I roll our eyes and argue about whether to switch it off. I'm giving it every opportunity. DH has gone to bed.

I'm liking it but then I'd watch if he was in Emmerdale...

Stringer Bell? God, I love that man... shiiiiiiiittttttttt

and the light's gone out

I have no idea who he is. Recognise her from Small Island BBC adaptation though.

this is also my critical position on idris elba, squeaver. i LIKE the yawn thing, very housey. this is just house with brit edge.
hate saskia reeves' accent more than elba's. don't like any of her dialogue either.

I like the way they've filmed London

rubbish plot but he is FIT
