This show was genuinely excellent in its opening season, dark, gritty, relatively credible and low-key as well. It was stretched a bit in the follow up seasons but remained a great watch with good drama and some excellent characters.
Sometime around S4 they seemed to have fired the writing team and hired staff from Coronation Street/Hollyoaks and it just turned into utter drivel. Anyone who's sat through the last season of Dexter or Game of Thrones with that disbelief of "how did we get here?" knows exactly what I mean.
