Gently Go Man (S01E01)

A pilot to test whether it would attract any viewers. A pilot that is the weakest link of the later series. With it’s rather small budget, some characters are played by other actors than in later episodes. In terms of the story, this is more about how the two got together, with the murder of a homosexual biker being shunted off to the sidelines. It’s definitely good, primarily thanks to the final half-hour. Up until then, it seems like a slightly above-average episode of a run-of-the-mill crime series. The final judgment will have to wait for the first regular episode. (30/08/2012)
