6-part police series from Ireland, part filmed in Antwerp. The Irish Criminal Asset Bureau chase a network of fraud, drug distribution, money laundering and diamond smuggling, so lots of procedural stuff, computers and diagrams on white boards. An enjoyable journey, although some plot holes along the way and the finale revelation about the full shadowy conspiracy is a bit flimsy. However it leaves enough hooks and loose ends for a second series .....

It is refreshing for a detective drama to see detectives focusing on detecting without being distracted by the usual genre cliches of unnecessary personal issues (fractured families, illicit relationships, tedious past tragedies or secrets, rebellious teenagers etc) and none of the detectives drive Audis.

Planes for impdb - locations in both Ireland and Belgium during eps 1.02 and 1.03, but none of them are obviously specific so probably some fudging

... and now S2 has happened. Still a good series, again split between Ireland and Belgium, complicated plot with layers between layers (has a strong whiff of "Line of Duty" influence), picks up S1 themes and digs deeper. Needs concentration to keep track of everything and it might be difficult to follow S2 if you haven't seen S1, but I was hooked - again a few threads left open for another series (S3) with hints from final announcer voice-over it may be on the cards.

S2 has a fetish for black cars, BMWs, and black BMWs.
