I have been a loyal fan of the Law & Order Franchise from its inception I was pleased to learn of a UK version, airing on CITY TV(Cable 13) in Victoria, B.C. I have seen the first two episodes which did not disappoint. Yes, there are similarities to the first few original episodes(contractual), but.... Wow!Superb acting! The chemistry among the experienced cast is evident. As with the original, writing is excellent.Chris Chibnall and the rest of the writing staff have crafted well written, plausible scripts which allow the cast creative license with them. The recent episode - the ending scene with Ben Daniels/young guest star(boy) was phenomenal - was one of the best I have seen among all the versions.The opening music intro is great! I shall be watching every episode when I can! Kudos to Dick Wolfe & production companies. Would love to see US/UK crossover, especially with Ben Daniels/Linus Roach(American version).
