Review: No Offence - series three episode two
This was another madcap, exciting episode that was over much too quickly.
Matt, The Custard TV, 21st September 2018Paul Abbott's Manchester cop drama gets better by the week. Tonight, the Friday Street team have just hours to track down a poisoned batch of halal meat. Prepare yourselves as Viv performs an unintended striptease; Miller unleashes a mean karaoke falsetto; and Dinah earns her stripes.
