Unforgotten (2015– )
10/10
A 10 out of 10
15 January 2024
I have watched all episodes (to date) and though I'm not a fan of Walker, the script kept me engaged, well written, no plot holes and fully developed characters.

I love the scientific aspect in the detail offered in analyzing corpses, finding stray bullets and blood stains and the whole detailed process of the forensics in coming up with solutions to the mysteries of old corpses and graves. The lives and connections of these ded people giving up their secrets in painstaking ways.

The team of detectives is fully rounded with their back stories and personal histories and challenges.

The slow unwinding of the salient facts is never drawn out or filler sused, it all makes sense in the end with the odd shocker thrown in to keep the viewers off balance.

Sanjeev Bhaskar is particularly brilliant in his role, his calmness and doggedness exquisitely portrayed and Sinéad Keenan (to me) is a huge improvement over Nicole Walker. I love how their slow acceptance of each other is so beautifully portrayed. Tears here.

Not to be missed by fans of this genre. It's up there with the best.

10/10.
