Everyone was saying the same thing...

However, when the show premiered last night, viewers all had the same complaint.

Instead of Happy Valley's Yorkshire setting, The Jetty takes place in an "eerie lakeside town" in Lancashire and centres around a female detective (Jenna Coleman, Doctor Who) and her investigation into a sprawling case.

The plot synopsis reads: "When a fire tears through a property in a scenic Lancashire lake town, Detective Ember Manning (Coleman) must work out how it connects to a podcast journalist investigating a missing persons cold case and an illicit ‘love’ triangle between a man in his twenties and two underage girls.

"But as Ember gets close to the truth, it threatens to destroy her life – forcing her to re-evaluate everything she thought she knew about her past, present and the town she’s always called home."

Described as a blend of a coming-of-age drama and a detective mystery thriller, The Jetty was written and created by Cat Jones (Harlots, Wolfe).

It boasts a large cast which also includes Archie Renaux (Alien: Romulus), Arthur Hughes (Shardlake), Bo Bragason (Renegade Nell), Elliot Cowan (Peaky Blinders), Matthew McNulty (Cleaning Up), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), Ruby Stokes (Lockwood & Co.), Tom Glynn-Carney (House of the Dragon) and Weruche Opia (I May Destroy You)

Comprising of four episodes, filming on The Jetty has wrapped and the series launched yesterday on BBC One.

On the whole, the show has been widely praised, however there was one complaint that everyone seemed to agree on. Viewers found the show difficult to understand, and took to social media to share their frustrations.

One person wrote: “Am I the only one finding #TheJetty hard to pick up ? Is it the sound ? The accents? Are they mumbling? #BBCOne."

A second put: “The Jetty on BBC1: So far I've hardly picked up a word. It's bad enough having background music to their incoherent guttural mumblings, so I'm turning it off right now. If I have to read subtitles, I might as well read a decent book. Is nobody taught diction these days?"

While a third penned: "Just watched it in one go, really good but had to put the subtitles on, dreadful muffled dialogue."
