Blue Lights - crime show based in North Ireland, Belfast

Postby mrki444 » 23 Feb 2024, 12:34

Blue Lights is a British police drama set in Belfast, Northern Ireland, with a great plot and well-developed characters. The police, criminals and secret services are connected. Most of the main characters are rookie cops, and struggle with the system's flaws, especially because of the specific history of the setting. Belfast is depicted in the series as a place where the police in certain neighborhoods have little or no influence.
Some call it the European version of the wire, but in my opinion that is an exaggerated comparison after one season.

I wonder if it's true how the mafia and gangs hold certain neighborhoods, and the police are afraid to enter and react without reinforcements? Also your reviews of the series and similar series are welcome.

Is it available on Disney+Hotstar/Netflix or Amazon Prime Video.
Sounds quite interesting.
I think that we have places in India and elsewhere, where the Mafia is so strong that a Police force hindered by Underworld-Politician nexus is afraid to go.
In India, Underworld used to be strong in Mumbai.
Yet, a few fearless Cops had the courage to take on the Mafia.
There were shootouts and encounters, albeit some allegations of rough handling and even fake encounters.
Yet overall, crime rates came down.
Perhaps you can watch movies like "Shootout at Lokhandwala", "Ab Tak Chapan" if you wish ! 8-)

As of now, due to House shifting, my such Movie/Series watching plans are a bit on the backburner.
Will check them after a good enough time.
