That's brilliant. Now people can once more lose fluid over David Paisley
("He's gay in REAL LIFE! I saw him in Popstarz!") when the real attraction
of the show is the shite plots and rather heavy accents.

BBc programme -last series was on BBC 1 -this new series has been
moved to BBC 2 after having been on BBC Choice .
One of the highlights was David Paisley who is currently in
Holby City playing a young gay guy who falls in lurv with a guy
who is a cop.

A gltzy, meant-to-be-gritty TV serial set in and around a dance club in
Scotland, with lots of awkwardly drawn characters. Entertaining enough,
but hardly worth a second series.

At the moment, the only plot element from Series One that I can recall
is a scene where a fiftysomething criminal disembowels one of her
deceased henchmen so she can retrieve a packet of drugs(?) he swallowed
for smuggling purposes.

Once upon a time, the term 'Gritty Realism' was not an oxymoron.
