A four-part thriller on Netflix is proving so gripping that viewers are finishing the whole series in a single sitting, with one fan admitting she stopped watching only because midnight had arrived.
Posting on TikTok, a woman named Alexia recommended the show as an easy one-night binge. She said she put on the first episode and was so hooked that she watched until midnight, finishing the entire season before stopping.
A Fan's Verdict on the Show
Alexia described the series as super easy to binge because it is only four episodes. She praised the cast, which includes Stanley Tucci and David Tennant, and noted that the show has multiple storylines running at once.
She explained that David Tennant plays a vicar who gets caught up in a massive misunderstanding, while Stanley Tucci portrays a criminal in prison who solves cases. Alexia added that some of the acting is not the best in places, but she said it is really entertaining and guaranteed viewers will be hooked from start to finish.
What Is the Plot?
The British crime thriller miniseries explores how ordinary people can make catastrophic choices under pressure. Written by Steven Moffat, the central premise is that anyone is capable of murder given the right bad day and a good reason.
David Tennant plays Harry Watling, a respected local vicar in a quiet English village, while Stanley Tucci is Jefferson Grieff, a former criminology professor on death row in Arizona, US, awaiting execution for murdering his wife. Lydia West appears as Beth Davenport, a British crime journalist who investigates the disappearance of Janice Fife, played by Dolly Wells, a sharp-witted mathematics tutor.
The four-episode series premiered on September 26, 2022, on BBC One. It is available to watch on Netflix, and episodes can also be purchased via Amazon Prime.
