Has anyone watched Patience on PBS? [View all]

The premise sounds interesting and I read it is a remake of a French-Belgian show.

How graphic is the show? I'm pretty squeamish, and my husband and I usually watch

TV during the dinner hour. Is it comparable to Midsomer Murders or Vera? Or is it

much more graphic. Thanks for any advice!
