Lee Sales

She's got a wife who's hilarious and she's just, you know, getting it done.

So just back up even further.

Is it a comedy or a drama?

There's a crime and they're solving it.

Like there's a crime and the cops are solving it and it's funny.

And is Deadlock the place?

Yes.

Sorry, God.

I've really arsed about this.

My apologies.

And the first season is set in Tasmania.

The second season is set in the Northern Territory because the other cop who enters the scene in the first series is this absolute knockabout nutter from the Northern Territory.

She's a real kind of, like, tough cop, very ochre, played by Madeline Sami, and...

Series two, these two mismatched cops go to the Northern Territory to investigate Northern Territory cops' partner's sudden death.

Crocs are involved, all sorts of Northern Territory paraphernalia is involved and the writing is so sharp and shocking and the performances are...

It's spot on.

It's the sort of thing where I watch it and I've, you know, I literally watched the first episode and I've read amazing reviews of it and I have to say I agree with them.

It's like a little weird slice of Australia where you go like this will become a global hit I reckon because it's wild and it's funny and it's really ribald and kind of like pushes people

It's terrific.

And you could also like you could also easily start just watching Series 2, you know, it's a new.
