Very nice series with again two policewomen in the lead role. It (the murder cases, the sober way of investigating, etc.) is well put together and the personal troubles of the two are naturally woven through it. And I quite simply like those two, Suranne Jones as Bailey and Lesley Sharp as Scott - with all the quirks that come with their characters.

Thick 3.5*.

Somehow I never had the opportunity to watch the five seasons of Scott & Bailey. But I can tick off S1 and S2 after more than a decade. Scott & Bailey is good British drama. Set against the backdrop of the Major Incident Team (MIT) at Manchester Police Station, protagonists and detective constables Rachel Bailey (Suranne Jones - Doctor Foster, Gentlemen Jack) and Janet Scott (Lesley Sharp - Before We Die ) the linchpin in solving the crimes and the rather hectic entanglements in their private lives. Jones and Sharp show why they are celebrated actresses here; Sharp in particular is on a roll as the empathetic Janet. Suranne Jones needs more of her youthful presence, but her acting is good and more convincing than what she sometimes shows nowadays (Vigil).

Creator Sally Wainwright (Happy Valley, Coronation Street) has developed a fine drama together with Suranne Jones, full of power women. The men on duty get off badly and are dorky, cocky or horny. Or just not that smart. What is particularly striking is that the crimes - solved within 40 minutes - still have sufficient expressiveness. The risk of fragmentation and superficiality is skilfully avoided. Special mention to Amelia Bullmore as DCI Gill Murray, who leads MIT in WoManchester in a beautiful and powerful way. Although logically somewhat dated, Scott & Bailey is rock solid.
