Above Suspicion (2009–2012)
5/10
I'd have given 10 stars except...
15 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
...for the fact that in S2-E3, The Red Dahlia, there are 2 INEXPLICABLE facts that defy common sense. In 2 separate scenes, the SAME woman ASSAULTS 2 different detectives. One with a riding crop that leaves a scar on his face and the other female detective gets a literal beat down. What made me take off 5 stars is that NOTHING HAPPENED to this out of control female. Nothing, nada, zilch, zero. She was not arrested or jailed. I guess in England assault on police is not a crime. And don't even get me started won why police, especially murder detectives, are not allowed to carry guns. Only in Northern Ireland are they allowed to. THAT, is my chief complaint on ALL British cop shows. My other complaint on this particular episode is that after the killer escapes, (he was cuffed) by beating a cop who was assigned to watch him, the inspector in charge bellows out, "How did he get out of his cuffs?" DUHHHHH, maybe, just maybe, he took the cuff key out of the cops pocket????
