UK or US? I actually didn't like it in the beginning, then it peaked for me, and now i think they are milking it.
uk. when james mcavoy and a few of the original cast where in it - was more sincere i agree, they are milking it now. plus newer characters seem like rehashed old characters.
The flute music really put me off it in the beginning. I portrayed the denusion of warmth and beauty that is life in manchester too vividly for me. I lived there for a few years, and I also spent most of my time there in a pub- I still have some of the brain damage i think. Also I liked it when the McGuires came in to it. They are scary as fuck! Remember Mimi McGuire when she was in Brookie? LOL fuck she's a sweat betty alright!
Just watching episode three. nice to hear Future Islands in the soundtrack. Song is called Vireo's Eye.
