Finally got my hands on Whitstable Pearl. The first episode was a bit of a drag and a bore but I am on the third episode now and it’s got consistently better. The protagonist, Pearl Nolan, has grown on me. Howard Charles is amazing as usual and it’s a delight to have him on my screen again. I am not a fan of the fridged wife/girlfriend trope giving the male protagonist some convenient Man Pain (even though Howie plays the tormented/suffering soul part tremendously well) and this has been my only major gripe about this otherwise enjoyable show so far.
