As above.

Is there a second series or is that it?

I think that’s it isn’t it?

That’s it as far as the book goes.
I’ve finished it all- did Hannah’s parents recognise her at the end? I wasn’t clear on that but assumed so given the whole passport gathering. But Nathan’s mum didn’t recognise him- why not?
May have missed something due to scrolling on phone

They have left it open for a second series I suppose.
hannahs parents made it underground but Nathan’s mum didn’t so she had her memory wiped. The only people that remember now are Hannah’s parents and sister, the police man, the shrink and her daughter.

Didn't the doctor die in the explosion?

If they are aliens / robots why did they leave knowing Hannah's parents and the doctors daughter knew?

Plus the Sam West Character is still alive so whatever he did the first time could he not do it again?

Unfortunately I read the John Wyndham book when I was 11, so unless the TV adaptation departs madly from that, I am spoilt already. I wish they'd do other Wyndham novels, The Chrysalids would be good.

Well, from the messages above it sounds like it does diverge...

I would love to see The Chrysalids, though as the whole premise is mind reading it might be difficult to adapt?

Also The Trouble with Lichen could be good?

Shrink died in us explosion surely?

What about the woman working with Sam character? She was human not alien right? She must know?

Reesewithafork · 12/06/2022 15:57

I thought there were so many holes in it - as previous posters have mentioned but maybe that’s on purpose so they can lead into a second series

who knows maybe they’ll start it with shrink and kids in a different alien dimension and the kids trying to find a way to go back.I feel like it’s deviated enough that anything could happen

I just want to know why one of the kids was made to look like a demented Dusty Springfield with the massive hair?
