qui_j I have to agree with the majority of viewers on here that canned this series. The first episode drops you in the middle of something, about which you have no idea, and just continues to get worse as time passes. There is little in the way of character development that would help viewers make the necessary connections between the characters, and if that came later in the series, I did not stick around to see. There were just so many holes in the plot e.g female lead gets shot but is able to carry out most of her duties, including clubbing and drinking. The acting is mediocre at best, horrible at worst! The editing, with the constant use of flashbacks just proved too overused. The first episode is a great indicator for each viewer to make up their minds as to whether they'll continue watching. If you make it through that, it's likely that the series will work for you.

lyninbyron Just binge watched it and it kept me guessing. Very enjoyable way to spend a wet afternoon. Great job to all concerned. Keep the U.K. Dramas coming please!

Million$Baby There was really only one major discrepancy throughout the ENTIRE series, start to finish, and that is the "5th bullet" they found in the tree at the site of the murder, that had DS Nancy Delvin's blood on it (for those who haven't watched this yet I won't explain anything further, no spoilers!). But without spoiling the rest of the show, it can be asked: how was she NOT found out right at that point, when she is a detective in the police force...if they ran a blood test on it (and they did, which I'm also not giving away!), it would immediately have come up with a match to DS Nancy Delvin, as all police force staff and members have blood and DNA on file...it's a standard. So that's a major fail, and they don't even try to make a feeble excuse for it all thru the series....

Jon Ogden Sr. I am a sincere fan of drama from Across the Pond. The Level was held up to a great extent by a solid supporting cast. However the lead investigator, as portrayed was greatly lacking in credibility. She appeared to be in a constant state of confusion and panic from the very beginning. Although she was given to be an established and respected Investigator it was a stretch beyond reason to accept. The dialogue as previously indicated could have been much better. But when a lead characters presentation is allowed to be more annoying than anything else it makes for a long long series. A Deer In The Headlight look became almost amusing as a frequent presentation in most situations. Ultimately, I cannot help but wonder where was the Director during shooting or any daily screening. This series could have been made better quite easily. Sadly it was not.J.L.Ogden Sr.
