Hidden, one for Shackeng
« on: 20 June 2018, 14:46:47 »

Hidden. Competent enough cop drama but have you noticed it is remarkably similar to The Bridge?:

The male and female leads both have something of a personality disorder for want of a better word
There are subtitles
There is something dark and horrible going on
There is even a bridge!

I stopped watching 'The Bridge' when the male detective took 2 vulnerable teenage girls back to his flat to sleep.

It's as though the script writers had no idea of the possible consequences. Couldn't take it seriously after that.

Be fair, his own two daughters of a similar age had gone missing, so an emotional attachment context was reasonable.
Having said that, it is reaching to think it would have been acceptable in this day and age. :y

There is that......but it would never be deemed appropriate for a policeman to take two vulnerable girls home......Even if wholly innocent. They could easily have come up with 'he touched us' scenario if so minded. Then what would happen?

Then what would happen?
The media would have a non stop wankathon for days, do-gooders would get their 15mins, we'd need a few vigils, both now and every anniversary, and the home office minister would have to resign, All before the facts were discovered.
