More cheerful stuff for Raquel

Kiri began tonight, decent start.

Heavy going but it will be interesting to see how the blame falls as the details emerge.

Sarah Lancashire was very good as always.

Dang, forgot about this.

Will have to try and catch up on the player.

Not quite as dark as it appeared in promos..

.. enjoyable, and Sarah Lancashire as per usual is fantastic!

Just caught up on the All4 player last night - a good first episode, will be interesting to see where it goes!

Good 2nd episode - the son off foster parents is abit too obvious?

_Whimsical_

The ending wasn't exactly satisfactory. There's talk of a second series already. It was good but I thought it could've been better on the whole.

After reading a few days ago that Kiri is the most watched Channel 4 drama of all time, I watched the whole series this weekend (the best way to watch it!).

It was terrific overall, but the ending was totally anti-climactic. I think they ran out of road and it needed a 5th episode to tie everything up.

Not sure how they can do a second series (unless it's called something else!)

Basq

Yep, enjoyed it but the finale did let it down a little. Can't imagine another series tbh!
