10 mins in & every middle.class tv cliche in the book. The rambunctious breakfast scene. The student age child who "spends most.of their time at bars". A husband with a Northern Irish accent to give him an edge. Female doctor mother. Father in finance. Daughter at private school. May as well be sponsored by Gail's Bakery

Did someone grab a slice of toast from someone else’s plate as they shrugged their jacket on and headed out the door?

🤣🤣🤣

If it’s a Harlan Coben they’re always quite predictable and cheesy. Paint by numbers tv.

I’m just on my way out to buy a cheese platter and crackers at Waitrose so I can binge watch this! Right up my (middle class) street. 😂

Is this the new Harlan Coben? Has it got a different name now?

If it is all the previous ones have very stereotyped imo

Someone has to go missing for a Harlan Coben.

To be 100% middle class we'll need to see: (i) a working class cleaner, (ii) a gay/minority best mate of the wife, (iii) a friend who lives/works in the EU and is have residency problems due to Brexit, and (iv) elderly parents with health issues and massive amount of cash to pay for care.

Is it Run Away series?
