What trope in UK television shows annoys you?

20 November 2024 @ 3:48 pm

For me, it is in UK police dramas (Frost was infamous for this) when a detective gets angry that a suspect gets away because said detective didn’t follow procedure. There is an episode where a lawyer lectures Frost about this with regard to a vulnerable adult that Frost is trying to pin something on. Of course said lawyer has to be shown later to be corrupt so that Frost is forever right. Everyone is entitled to innocent until proven guilty. submitted by /u/HallowedAndHarrowed to r/AskUK [link] [comments]
