OMG, I LOVED that episode. To be honest, because I have streaming problems I missed whole sections, so wasn't really paying attention to the case itself. I still don't know who actually did it (will be re-watching shortly). But that was just incredible fun banter/rivalry between Jack and Charlie and wow, he really has a potty mouth! Which I gotta say I quite enjoyed.
I felt those "little moments" of character took center stage on this one.
Next week looks Jack-o-licious too!

Tonight's episode felt much more relaxed and free flowing. I thought Damien was very much at ease, the last two interrogations especially he was in his element I thought and the chemistry between junior and senior detectives also felt very real. I liked their camaraderie. Again I do think Fay Ripley was the weak link, but well done to Damien and Clare. A big improvement to last week's debut episode.
Fay is definitely the weak link, though she did improve slightly over last week. Loved, loved Damien, but Clare is fantastic as well!

Did anyone else think tonight's episode had a coolness factor? perhaps that seems crass to say considering the subject matter but the tone was lighter and that verbal sparring between Jack and Charlie was just very awesome.
I thought Fay Ripley portrayed a great DI tonight. got a strong sense of her character.
It was definately lighter in tone....the subject matter also allowed some space for the characters to be more relaxed - last weeks ep had a pretty hectic pace because of the nature of the story-line......no time to be cool! I guess that will vary from week to week?
I thought Fay did a better job this week...but also felt we didn't see so much of her? If I thought last weeks ep seemed to have Jack as the most central character...then I think that's even more true of tonights.
Loved the moment when he found the recorder in the locker too.......if this was a run of the mill drama, then he would've just been on his own. I love that the need to share the moment with somebody made him acknowledge the camera.

agree. and not complaining about Jack being the central character. from the amount of screen time in the "next time" preview, he'll be the central character again.

Is it wrong to be salivating over most of those screencaps?

Just finished watching it. I agree with all you have said. And you are right about the potty mouth! I now cannot wait until next week, but in the meantime will watch again. Perhaps a bit later on.
