I watched it on Sunday and it was TRULY AWFUL. I can't think of anything good to say about it. The plotline was stupid and it was really boring. I think Neil Dudgeon is very wooden too. I DID enjoy the programme before it though with all the clips from the last 25 years. For all the ABers who are now going to say I needn't watch it, I won't in future!!!
It was better with John Nettles.
Of the ones I've seen some episodes are better than others.
In a couple you could see the plot twist coming a mile off
Yes it is. We live in a rural village too. It was far better when John Nettles was Tom Barnaby. The plots now are ridiculous and very complicated. We won’t be watching again.
