      I've never seen the show, but 'Ta' is normally short for 'thankyou' -

      I was only joking

        I guess it could be short for 'ta-ra', which means goodbye. Ta-ta is also good-bye.

            I'll need to start watching it - I've been at a bit of a loose end since finishing The Expanse for the second time. I like a good British crime show.

              It's very good. There's an arc that spans all 5 seasons you can watch on HULU. But, every season is pretty stand-alone with a "hey wait until we tell you next year!" ending. Exceptionally "procedural."

              If you have a hard time with the accent, I recommend turning on the subtitles.

                I've just watched Series 1, Episode 1, and I think I may be hooked.

                I managed to struggle through without subtitles, although that Irish bloke has a bit of a brogue.

                  “Ta da” is used by exhibitionists.

                  Education is extremely important.

                    LOL

                    it gets a much more interesting.

                    Without spoiling, just pay attention to “H”.

                      Maybe in California.

                      There are no exhibitionists in England.
