I've made some bad choices lately and this series was another one. I watched till the end of episode three and gave it up as a bad job. Ok, it's meant to be partially a comedy but it just doesn't sit right with the crime aspect. And it's not that funny. It took me those three episodes to realise that the bunch of incompetents Leo Brand had chosen to be his trainee PI helpers were there for their laughability.
The back stories hinted at just didn't interest me at all. Brand's hidden problems with the police leading to his resignation and Agotha's mum's disappearance were just add ons. I didn't care at all what these sub plots would lead to even when it was blaringly revealed with the earring that both might be linked.
I can't recommend this in the slightest.
