Episode #1.1

This has all the quality production values we have come to think of as normal for modern screen drama and, as far as I can tell anyway, is hitting the mark with the period detail.

However as a narrative it is astonishingly untethered. I'm watching an edit broadcast by the BBC in the UK in July 2025 and from comments it seems likely that other edits exist and have been shown. But from what I see the episode summary on the page here would constitute a spoiler because it gives details that are simply not elucidated on the screen. By the end of the episode connections between the three parts of the narrative would still be a matter of conjecture or guesswork had I not read the IMDB entry before watching. That is inexcusable and it hardly motivates one to go forward to the next episode in the hope of finding out.
