Retribution on Netflix/BBC aka One of Us in the UK

WOW. Anyone into good British murder dramas has to watch this 4 part BBC series on Netflix.

It's called Retribution on Netflix but One of Us in the UK.

Filmed in and around Edinburgh.

So many twists and turns.

Great acting.

I watch a lot of BBC stuff so maybe my ears are accustomed to it. Being on Netflix you can turn on the subtitles. They are all very good actors and to me they spoke clearly with an Edinburgh accent which is very "proper" sounding unlike some Glasgow accents that can be harder to understand.

Give it a try. it's very good and tense at times.

I just watched the first 2 episodes. Beautiful photography too! The show should be called "It's Complicated." You're right about the plot twists. Looking forward to watching the rest of it.

here and there. Think it was one of those shows/movies you start late and fall in and out of sleep

Anyway, was worried it was gonna be one of those "keep him alive forever in a cage" deals. But made it through the first episode starting second. Starting to look quite interesting.

Thanks for recommending!
