I just finished ep 1 on my second try. If I had kept watching for two minutes longer I would have watched it through the first time most like as there was a pivotal reveal at that point. It has a semi-unique plot and seems to flirt with a portrayal of high functioning mental illness. All in all, very good and I love Nicola Walker; she’s great every time.

I just finished it and it was quite good. Not quite as good as Bodyguard (British miniseries), but still good. The surprise reveal doesn’t come until the last episode. Strong performances and good plot progression throughout.
