One thing about British shows that I especially enjoy, is how they make the landscape and old building part of the characters. It gives a sense of history, plus it's 'pretty'. I also like that people are so realistic. Most human beings are not that attractive and thin as in American shows, which of course leaves out most people feeling that they somehow don't fit or are not good enough the way they are. You don't need lots of bloodshed to make a show interesting. Looking forward to more episodes. As to some of the comments, this is a British show and if you expect to see American values this is not the show for you, chill out.
