Happy Valley returns

It's worth waiting for ValDa...

And what a cast. Amelia Bullmore, Kathleen Kelly, to name but two ...

Started to watch it on "I player" last night.  The programme was spoiled by exceptionally poor sound recording. The dialogue was sometimes difficult to follow . Gave up in the end. 

All the other BBC programmes are recorded to a high quality.  Why put this one out with a sound deficiency?.

There are very many comments about the poor sound around the internet!

We thought it was incredibly bad

  Agree bad sound could really spoil the full series, I would think it has already been recorded.

I also seem to remember on the last series of New Tricks that the sound quality was rubbish must be the BBC cutting costs

Also the series Jamaca Inn from not too long back had atrociuos sound quality and some of the worst mumbling i,ve ever heard..

Watched this last night, looks like being just as good as the last series.  

We recently bought a sound bar to improve the quality of sound on the tv but even with this we had to revert to subtitles. 

Not a series I've watched but from the trailers, the title seems singularly inappropriate.

Its actually an extremely appropriate title.

As well as being blatently ironic, it also bears witness to the amount of `exotic` substances grown and smoked down the valley towards Hebden Bridge.

There was a woman from the programme making dept being interviewed on the BBC news about the atrocious sound quality. She was full of excuses. Apparently there are no sound quality issues according to the programme makers.   What a ridiculous point of view.
