‘Not good enough, ITV’: Bancroft fans forced to watch show with subtitles due to excessive mumbling

ICYMI, Bancroft is the hottest new crime drama of the minute, with our reviewer calling it ‘bloody good’ and likening it to Line Of Duty.
Sarah Parish of Broadchurch fame stars as a female detective with dark secrets in her past. Sounds very Happy Valley to us, wouldn’t you agree?
Well the new four-part ITV drama started on Monday night, but some viewers were forced to watch the show with subtitles because of ‘excessive mumbling’ and ‘poor sound quality’.
Not the best start to the series…
I was excited to get stuck into #Bancroft tonight but the sound quality is appalling making it difficult viewing!

Finding the sound awful on #Bancroft! Pitying my neighbours so had to put the subtitles on! Not good enough @ITV
