STEVE COOGAN IS best known for his comedic roles, but in the new Netflix series Legends he plays a very serious person indeed: the man in charge of training undercover British Customs officers.

The series, written by Neil Forsyth, is about what happened when Customs staff were given new identities and tasked with trying to break into drugs gangs in the 1990s.

In our Best of the Box review last week, we said:

If you’re looking for a gripping, moreish thriller that feels down-to-earth yet very entertaining, definitely watch Legends.

But have you seen Legends, and if so what did you make of it?
