„Cuffs is not just a fast-paced police procedural – it also explores the personal lives of Brighton’s police force, with Walters‘ Ryan portrayed as a single dad of two children. BBC One’s new cop drama Cuffs debuted with a decent 4.22m (20.5%) viewers.“

„The characters are charismatic and well-drawn … the cast really sell the dialogue. Plus, it’s genuinely fun to see Brighton on screen. This opening hour of Cuffs certainly arrested our attention.“
