Wild Bill

[Rollypolly 51]

Does anyone else find Wild Bill boring and difficult to follow. I can't believe that a chief constable would spend his time solving crimes with a junior detective constable. I find the story lines poor and confusing but Bill always manages to solve the crime with little information to go on. Also I don't think his team would or be allowed to speak to him the way they do. I've watched it 3 times now in the hope that it will improve but it hasn't so I'm giving up on it. 😒

It is a trope in UK detective and police procedural programmes that ranks such as Inspector and Chief Inspector walk the streets doing what in real life is done by a DS and a DC.

 

In reality, senior officers are office based usually only leaving the station to go to meetings with other senior officers or give press briefings.

I don't  think a British cop uniform  looks right on Brad Pitt doesn't  seem right,

I can't  get into watching it full time but it's  nice to see a Sheffield actor in it.

I agree, he outclasses all the others by miles, I like the show, its relaxed easy viewing, but I do think his talents are wasted.

Did anyone spot Sheffield actor Tony Pitts,  he was Archie in Emerdale for ten years until he got killed off in that plane crash.

It looks like Archie lives on.
