Thanks.

More than excellent. This is one of the best cop series I've ever seen. And as much as I might hate to admit it, as you said, possibly better than Luther. I'm so hooked I watched all five of the episodes so far back to back. Now I'm on pins and needles waiting for the last two to be aired. :-) As for "baddies," Gatehouse is looking like just the topmost layer. Almost everybody in the series is either already an excellent "baddie," or in training to become one.
