The ASD for this character feels more believable, and is not such a savant as in the Frnech version, although still highly intelligent. The characters are plausible, and overall the series is well-done.

Like the UK take on the French series Astrid. It drops the romantic relationships of the female detective (which was distracting in the French series) and focuses more on the relationship between Patience and Bea. It does continue to keep the mysteries more on the fun and interesting vs serious and morbid. It feels as if the writers and creators of "All Creatures Great and Small" decided to make a mystery series. Enjoyed the entire series and look forward to season two.

Having watched Astrid et Raphaëlle, Patience is a weak version of the original. I assume at some point I will stop watching as it doesn't have the hook that Astrid does. Too bad but we see this often that the original has bite and the imitator has only bark.

I am a fan of the original, French/Belgian crime drama series Astrid et Raphaëlle. Patience is not as good Astrid, but perhaps I will warm to this version as I watch more episodes.
