This gets better and better. It flows really well, no holes in the plot and the acting, especially the 2 lead women, is superb. Surprisingly good, I watched it all in one go!

Set in a pretty small Welsh town, it is set 18 years after a young girl disappears, assumed murdered. It is a study of grief and the dynamics of a tight knit community, changed forever by this one event. It is beautifully shot and scripted and benefits from a superb ensemble cast, with a special mention to the 3 leads. It builds well, and you become absorbed in the story and the people. You are not distracted by questions and plot holes. You are able to just enjoy it, and this is why I wanted to know what happens and watched the 6 episodes in one evening. Highly recommended.

Once you start watching it you can't stop, you're almost holding your breath! Actors are absolutely amazing, spot on!

I have three daughters and as I watch this this is exactly how it would go, everyone in the show portrays the heartbreak, the fear and the torment as if it were a real part of their lives, very well acted very well done.

You will not waste your time watching this, and I always love when they film absolutely beautiful, and I don't think I've ever seen a show with any one of these individual actors in it that I didn't like, they never let you down, their faces are what draw you in, because you know they're great actors but they're acting keeps you watching!

Wow this was good.

Joanna Scanlon and Alexander Roach both starred in the brilliant No Offence and are both excellent here too.

The story is about a mother who's daughter was murdered by a local boy but the body was never found. The murderer played by Iwan Reon has never been able to recall what he did with the body but despite this he is granted parole.

What follows is fascinating look at a mothers love and devotion and how it affects everyone around her and the journalist who moved away after the murder of her friend coming back to write a story about the murder.

There a twists and turns aplenty and a few subplots that are tied up nicely and some red herrings that Line Of Duty would be proud of but it's the strength of acting not just from its stars but a strong supporting cast that kept me watching and guessing. (I actually guessed right but won't spoil it for anyone here)

Filmed in both Welsh and English (The Light In The Hall) this is a really strong thriller right up there with the best of British TV.

Highly recommended.

With dramas that you get on channel 4 and channel 5 you might find 1 out of 5 is actually worth watching, this was worth watching and more. This is a spoiler free review but I would think that most people will have the same 'inkling' that I did on episode 1.

There might be some obviousness about the series but the acting and script more than make up for it.

There are some wonderful scenery, and it goes to show how much of a beautiful country Wales can be.

One thing that I thought was very well done is how many of us, if not all of us tend to be wearing rose tinted glasses when we try and remember what we were like and how we behaved when we were teenagers.

Overall this was an excellent drama with an outstanding story portrayed by actors at the top of their game.

It might even make me forget that it was Ramsay Bolton that was on the screen.

At least 4 episodes too long. I had more or less guessed what had happened after a couple of episodes. Bit unbelievable that journalist would go around a village interviewing people like she did just dropping in. And what convenient coincidences she always was in the right place at the right time? Perhaps that is why she did a far better job than police investigators. Couldn't clear my mind that Joe wasn't Ramsey Bolton (GOT) Joanna Scanlan played a good part as Sharon and sounded authentically Welsh. Not quite sure what purpose Cat's boyfriend / editor had in the production? Watch only if you've nothing better to do.
