Hustle

I caught the first two episodes of the latest series and thought they were alright but not as engrossing as previous seasons. Although it was great to see the return of Mickey Briggs, what happened to Stacey and Danny? They were barely mentioned, not to mention the fact that Albert is stuck in prison! I hate it when characters are just dropped without proper explanations like that. The new brother and sister duo are OK but will they fill the void left by Danny Blue and Stacey? The girl looked familiar but I couldn’t recall where I had seen her before, IMDB informs me that she played Mickie in Casualty! I’ve got the rest of the series somewhere so I’ll give it another go soon.
