Carol Midgley Times (UK) Descended into giddy farce with a plot flimsier than a moth's pantyhose. Rated: 2/5 Mar 9, 2021 Full Review Deborah Ross The Mail on Sunday (UK) It's so formulaic it's deadening. And at two hours a pop, it has the same running time as, say, Citizen Kane, although there the similarity does end. Rated: 2/5 Mar 8, 2021 Full Review Sean O'Grady Independent (UK) It's Sunday night ITV escapism at its best. Rated: 4/5 Mar 1, 2021 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said [The] second season of Bath UK detective series McDonald & Dodds, is even more fun than the first, I'm pleased to report. Aug 10, 2021 Full Review James Walton The Spectator McDonald & Dodds once again succeeded in its by no means ignoble aim of making two hours of television pass in an undemandingly enjoyable way. Just don't expect Line of Duty. Jul 19, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Sam H More of a question than a review; specifically the episode the man who wasn’t there. I think I picked up on quite a few lines dropped in that were either song lyrics or song titles am I right on this especially those from the 80s and 90s when the four main characters were involved in music one way or another? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Alicia L C McDonald and Dodds strikes a unique tone, blending humor with mystery. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, making it easy to connect with the characters. The characters playful performance adds to the show’s appeal, even when the plot stretches believability. Excellent show!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/24 Full Review Kim H Brilliant series Mcdonald & Dodds. About to watch again. Excellent actors Tala & Jason Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/29/23 Full Review Helen R It's a lot of fun seeing the actors having a ball & trying not to crack up laughing. A terrific script & solid likeable characters committing or solving crimes in Bath. Morse, but funnier Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review pj m Watched all three seasons. More please! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Diane M Love the evolving chemistry between McDonald and Dodds. Butter with chips? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/24/22 Full Review Read all reviews
