Interesting concept but the acting talent (Vicky McClure) is absolutely wasted on the dire script. Every line of dialogue is obvious, lazy and sounds almost like it was written by someone's child on their work experience. The characters don't feel real or believable because every single line is written to get the story from A-B-C rather than to tell us anything about the character. Like at a certain point in the script we are asking 'why was x character being so secretive?' so now another character has to ask this exact question out of nowhere. All tell and no show.
I made it through the first episode only but there's no way I'm going to make it through the rest. Really such a shame as this could have been far more interesting if better executed.

Did the writer of the 1st 3 episodes elope? This mini series feels like it was written but 2 different people. I think the writer gave up on what was starting out as a decent thriller. The last 3 episodes were absolutely awful. The twist in the story makes no sense and the final episode felt rushed with so many unanswered questions. I hope this doesn't get a 2nd series. One positive is the cast, all were excellent and I'm surprised they committed so well to complete the series. I had all the emotions watching this series. Laughing at the last episode due to how ridiculous it ended. I think the whole cast and crew were lead astray to invest there talent in this series.
I couldn't get through the first episode. I gave up halfway through. The development of the story is painfully slow and uneventful. I can't even really recall what happened. Pointless discussions painting daily family life. Who wants to watch this? Who bothered to write such mind numbing drivel?
If you want to captivate the viewer you must include purposefully thought out intrigue that is well planned and develops in a manner that doesn't give away too much of the story's plot too quickly.
The first episode, barely develops much of anything at all.
This is a hard pass so far, hopefully it gets better, I love a good horror series.

I was looking forward to this as I'm a big fan of Vicki McClure, but honestly even an actor of her calibre couldn't stop this from sliding into one woeful mess. At first the story seems compelling enough, but after a few episodes the characters start to behave in ways that will have you shouting at your television. The respective sub-plots featuring the teenage daughter's dodgy relationship and the sister's fertility struggles add nothing to the story except to provide the characters with further opportunities to demonstrate poor judgement and engage in cringeworthy conversations where everyone talks in circles. The second to last episode enters the realms of hackneyed, scorned stalker out for revenge who does a bunch of silly things that are completely ludicrous and overblown and ohhhh my, the kid's behaviour in the final scene... I was hoping a meteorite would land on the house and put everyone out their misery. Is it a revenge thriller? Is it a supernatural thriller? Is it a social commentary about adults who try to be their kids' besties instead of parenting? Or a piece about overly ambitious middle class professionals handcuffed by mortgages on gigantic houses in the countryside, burdened by their past relationships with creepy family members? Who knows? Please don't do it again, Vicky, you're so much better than this.
The end of the first episode jumps into a trailer for the next episode that can only be skipped by pausing, fast forwarding, or backing out of the episode and manually selecting the next episode!!! It presents you with immediate spoilers that will pop the bubble of Mystery before you can reach the remote!!! I do not understand why this would be introduced without a "skip spoiler" button!!! This show seems to be a slow-burn, tepid tea storyline which will likely simmer for quite a few episodes before it reaches
a light boil. For that reason, an ultra high speed condensed spoiler between episodes clashes loudly! So far the acting seems great, it has a real potential, as the plot thickens - no need to dilute it in such a way!!!
The show concludes with a loose end dragged into the pond and left there with no further mention of it! The purpose of the number sequence really doesn't add up! It certainly does not leave you waiting for season 2.
