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. Yet, but as we come to know and understand him, it becomes clear he's a departure from everything he superficially appears to represent. 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. Its ironic too, when you have an allegedly left wing UK government, that is quite literally, imprisoning its citizens, for free speech. In summary, a great series that let down by a weak latest season six that saw fit to try its hand at some rather clumsy political indoctrination. I would have happily rated this an 8 or even a 9 but as it stands, a 7 will have to suffice.
