This is the Southland message board. If you are looking for a show close to Southland but set in the UK, you should check out the show called "The Bill".
Like Southland it shows the work of both the Uniformed Police and the Detectives. The stories are all realistic everyday type of scenarios the British police encounter.
The shows being suggested to you in this thread are the equivalent of the X-Files in terms of reality.
Southland was good because of it's realism and honesty. The only British Cop show like it is "The Bill".

(cough My suggestion, Juliet Bravo, was quite realistic too. As was The Cops)

I was too young to find Juliet Bravo interesting.
The Bill is still the top cop show for realism and the nearest to Southland.

I watched 3 British/Irish shows last year, The Fall, Happy Valley and Broadchurch, all excellent. They were on Netflix

All are good shows. The new season of The Fall has been my most anticipated since the end of the last one. More so than Banshee, Walking Dead, Black Sails, Penny Dreadful and more.
