The first five seasons of UK crime series,"CB Strike", are quite frankly, brilliant. The crime tales which occupy a season of six episodes each are well crafted, complex and compelling, as are the intricate, inherently human and wholly relatable, characterisations. Strike who runs a UK detective agency is a cold gruff, sleuthing cliche.

His female partner, balances out Strike,drawing out the softer, kinder, somewhat tragic, side of his character. In short this is fantastic stuff. The chemistry between the cast members,especially the leads is excellent. Regrettably, season six of the series, isn't quite as inspiring. There's a thread of anti-right politicising that paints those on the right as Fascist, racist, misogynists and terrorists. …
