We've found another Netflix show we really like. We've watched five episodes over the last 3 nights.
It's called Happy Valley. It's about a middle aged police sergeant in a small town in West Yorkshire, UK. The visual contrast between the beautiful countryside and impoverished, drug filled town is stunning.
You learn in the opening scene that the police officer who is the central character is divorced, has two children, one dead and one who doesn't talk to her, a grandson, and she lives with her recovering heroin addict sister. That's almost a direct quote from her.
The show is a bit violent at times, but very well written, fast paced, and well acted. You might need your closed captioning on, as their dialect and slang can be a bit hard to understand.
It came out in 2014, so maybe you've all seen it, but it's new to us.
