I'm an American who watches a lot of British TV, but I watch this one with subtitles turned on. I might start working "numptie" into my vocabulary. Other words which were new to me: lag - a convict reet - ok, good, fine "She's poorly" - She's not well SOCO - Scene of Crime Officer, I think I can think of 1-2 others which are too colorful for polite company.

I agree. Seems like a cheap trick, gratuitous and unnecessary. I've watched the first 5 episodes and might give up. How common are the flashback scenes? Every episode?
