I enjoyed it but it was a tad too long and could have been condensed into perhaps four episodes rather than six.
I loved the inclusion of the historical facts about the 'workers' brought in from Vanuatu. As an Australian I'm mortified that I did not know about this. I'm in my sixties and so am aware to some extent of many, many historical omissions that were not taught in our educational system, but this floored me.
There were a good few plot holes and weird things - eg, what was the point of the Mackay detectives? One scene and then no mention of them? Did I miss something there?
Otherwise, a good series and kudos to Stan for making a show about a culture that is little known in the wider aspects of this home country.
