Terror Camp Clear

We finally see the creature in all it's glory in this episode. The 2nd antagonist for Crozier is officially donned in this episode as well. Which one will be his doom?

S1 of The Terror boasts an enviable cast of characters, most notably Jared Harris in the role of Captain Francis Crozier. His display of authority and humanity in this episodes speaks to the tremendous job Jared Harris does in embracing the role of the unenviable Captain in navigating the hardships of his situation and growing turmoil amongst his crew. Also, the excellent dialogue serves to accentuate the importance and urgency of what you're watching. Even without any sort of action or intrigue, these characters are nothing short of mesmerizing and they demand all of your attention.

This is the best episode so far in what is already an excellent series.

Captain Crozier gets word of a possible mutiny, but Mr Hickey and the mutineers are at an advanced stage with their plan.

If like me you've been missing the beast, then fear not, you will definitely get your fix here. An excellent episode which begins in dramatic fashion, and doesn't let up for a minute. I would argue this is one of the best.

An incredible scene between Fitzjames and Crozier, where the two men have discovered a degree of peace with one another, Tobias Menzies and Jared Harris show their worth here.

It's enough to put you off tinned food for life.

Excellent entertainment, 9/10.

When Mr. Collins comes out of the fog laughing hysterically, and then what follows is some of the best I've seen on televison in a long time. 10/10

The episode starts with a terrific character moment between Crozier and James Fitzjames. How Fitzjames feels like a fraud.

The real tension is between Hickey's scheming and Crozier trying to get to the truth regarding the death of his men while out with Hickey.

The rest of the men are scared, paranoid and planning a mutiny. Hickey is the ringleader and they just need to get hold of the guns.

The isolation and stress is clear to see in the icy landscape. The monsters are the men but then the beast also decides to show up.
