Keeping Faith (2017)

Watchseries; Agree with most other reviews; * Interesting story with promise which would have benefited from 4-6 eps max! * Far too many contemplative moments with the same song over and over in each episode. Appreciate using the music to create emotional depth but way overused to the point of distracting and annoying * Story became convoluted and confusing * Police became cartoon villains by the end which was unbelievable * Some of Faith's decisions were ridiculous

Overall, ok but poorly executed and way way too long!

Keeping Faith watchseries. The series hasn't finished airing yet but it's been a pleasure to watch. One of those shows that has you questioning everyone's motive and character. The acting is top notch all round and really showcases Eve Myles as a performer. Lastly, the cinematography is outstanding. Never has Wales looked so gorgeous on a scripted tv series.

Absolutely loved this show, from the high calibre of actors and crew to the idylic setting of Laugharne, this show's wales at its best. It includes actors whom have won countless Bafta Cymru awards, and have appeared in successful shows such as Hinterland/Y Gwyll.

As I have watched this show in English and Welsh, I can see how dedicated Eve is to this role, having learnt welsh specifically for it. I was supprised to see how well her lines flowed and felt so natural, like she had known this language for years. As the show progresses through the show actors such as Aneirin Hughes (Tom Howells) who, personally made the last few episodes for me. The emotion convayed by himself was spectacular.

Writing by Matthew Hall is Whitty and Emotional, the comedy relief which is needed is delivered beautifully by Catherine Ayers who plays Lisa, which is what you need as the shocking drama unfolds.

If this show were to get a series 2, I would love for them to explore Bethan and Terry's relationship, In a lot more detail as I feel if they had time, this could have been explored in more depth and made a very interesting sub-plot.

I disagree with other reviewers, saying it drags on too long. It is building the characters and creating atmosphere. Eve Myles is phenomenal actress and she is beautifully directed in this breathtaking series. However, I'm surprised to note that no reviews either on IMDb or in general on the internet have picked up on the fact that her on-screen husband Evan (Bradley Freegard) is her hubby in real life!!

In a world where people are looking for instant gratification and sound-bites, it is refreshing to see a production that is allowed to develop the storyline and characters and to enable the audience to want more at the end of each episode: I would use the analogy of reading a book that you don't want to put down "just one more chapter"! I appreciate that others have commented on this is as a negative, but I would strongly disagree.

The locations are stunning and the whole thing, from location through actors & production showcases Welsh creativity and television at its best.

I look forward to seeing further productions of such depth and quality.

Utterly brilliant from start to finish. Is it the finish?!!!! I want more. Eve is just mesmerising. She is such a great actress and so original. I believed every second of her portrail of poor Mrs Howells. So very very glad she agreed to be in this role. It would have been a travesty to have lost her to another career! She was born to act. Anfmf so lovely to hear Amy Wadges gorgeous track 'Faith's song'. Cant believe its over!
