A gritty police drama with a distinct Liverpool feel and a bigger focus on corruption, The Responder makes for good viewing without being anything groundbreaking. As a big fan of Sherlock, I'm happy to see Martin Freeman top billing a show, and he puts on a great performance as flawed copper Chris Carson. As with other recent British dramas, I was surprised to see a second series for The Responder, but it provided another interesting storyline. Worth a viewing for anyone into British police dramas, but it's no Line of Duty.
It is relentless and grim and that is arguably the point of such brutally honest storytelling.
