Critiques
Frightening and suspenseful
Staplekid
Clever script well acted as well produced as you’d expect from John Dryden. Genuinely scary at times. Having the luxury to run over 2x 43 minute slots means the tension can come to the boil slowly. One niggle: the two lead actresses’s voice were at times too similar in intonation, which sometimes made me stop and rewind to work out who said what.
Okay

Hysterical, boring and predictable. One episode too long.
