- TriviaActor Ron Donachie plays Archie Duff, Colin Duff's father. Colin is played by actor Daniel Portman. Daniel Portman is Ron Donachie's son. So not only are they father and son, in this series they also play father and son. Incidentally, both are know for their previous roles in Game of Thrones, where they played Ser Rodrik Cassel (Ron Donachie) and Podrick Payne (Daniel Portman) though had no shared scenes and were of no relation.
- GoofsWhen Bel Richmond offers DC Murray wine, she says it Châteauneuf-du-Pape, however the wine is in a Bordeaux shaped bottle which is incorrect for this region. Rhone wines, especially this style use a heavy, dark, more squat bottle which is often embossed.

Featured review
D. S. Karen Pirie is tasked with reopening the cold case, of murdered barmaid Rosie Duff, who was found by three students on a night out.
Firstly, it's encouraging to see ITV reverting back to two hour dramas on Sunday nights, giving us something a little different from just Vera and Midsomer Murders.
It's a solid first episode, I think it's fair to say it's an enjoyable opener, there's nothing out of the ordinary, nothing particularly unique, but it was watchable enough, and provided us with an engaging enough mystery.
Very nicely produced, they did a good job creating the 90's. Solidly made, with some great music, who doesn't love hearing Pulp.
I'm a big fan of Emer Kenny, so was keen to see how she did as a writer, she's clearly got writing talents, as well as acting talent, she looked so different here than she does as Bunty in Father Brown.
Lauren Lyle did a good job in the title role, well acted. She's an interesting character, but I'm sure there's more to come.
I look forward to next week's, 7/10.
