It did take me the first 4 or 5 episodes to get into the charaters, and learn an appreciation for their quirks and personality developments. But by the second series I was hooked. Now I am parsing it out. I have finished series 1 -3 and just started series 4. It goes in chronological order from 1940 and on during WW2 in the UK and gives a great setting of what the average people were going through (not that I have any idea of what that was but it is cool anyway).

The principle is a detective carrying on with the business of police work in the face of a greater threat and the stories are intertwined. Fantastic.
