Suspects Series 4 Premiere Press

Ahead of the premiere, the new series is already receiving well deserved press buzz. Numerous publications praise the actors’ performances and the show’s fresh, semi-improvised, fly on the wall format which has established Suspects as a standout amongst police procedurals.

The TV Times Magazine gives the opening episode 5 stars.

The stripped back semi improvisational style that makes this police procedural drama so refreshing is, thankfully, intact”

All the answers are revealed in a typically skilful understated way that will leave you quietly gripped until the credits roll”

Digital Spy recommend Suspects as one of the 6 TV Shows you must see this week, calling it one of their “personal guilty pleasures”.

Damien Molony and Fay Ripley are among the actors who devise much of their own dialogue, making it feel more like an episode of 24 Hours in Police Custody than a drama. Maybe True Detective could take a leaf out of Channel 5’s book? You heard it here first.”

The Telegraph single out Damien as “the standout performer” and describe the show an “underrated gem of a crime drama”, also applauding the improvised dialogue and format:

This gives the police procedural a gritty sense of realism and natural spontaneity, strengthened by the wobbly camerawork and naturalistic feel.”

The List gives the Series 4 premiere a glowing review, calling Suspects “The best original programme Channel 5 has ever produced.”
