On the face of it, it looks like an unlikely story following a prisoner on death row in the United States, a vicar in a quiet English town, and a maths teacher trapped in a cellar.

What’s their connection, you may ask?

According to the synopsis, the story follows a US prisoner on death row (Tucci), who is seeking atonement as he faces execution. It continues: “On a train in England, a journalist (West) is looking for a story. In a quiet little village, a vicar (Tennant) is picking up his son’s maths tutor (Dolly Wells) from the station.

“All four are about to be entangled in a dilemma that could lead one of them to murder.”

And as the synopsis also states: “Everyone’s a murderer – you just need a good reason and a bad day.”

Like we said, this series has a star-studded cast. Tennant plays Harry Watling, Tucci plays Jefferson Grieff, West plays Beth Davenport while Dolly Wells (Pursuit Of Love) plays Janice Fife.

The cast also includes Lyndsey Marshal (Dracula), Atkins Estimond (Hightown), Mark Quarterly (Cursed), Tilly Vosburgh (Maigret), Louis Oliver (Midnight Mass), Kate Dickie (The Witch) and Dylan Baker (Hunters).

Get in there @LadyEloise1 😂😂

This is disturbing to say the least...

It is very disturbing indeed :(

Good so far. Haven't read the synopsis so I've no idea what's going to happen

Bloody hell this is some weird shit

A bit far fetched...

I do properly love Stanley Tucci though

I loved Stanley Tucci in 'the devil wears Prada.'

I loved the scene on the tube where the women turned the tables but the rest is... we will give it an episode but unsure if it going to be worth the time.

I think I've finally got used to David tennant play these dark characters now !!
Hi @Blondeshavemorefun

I am going to lower my standing here and say I adored him in Burlesque

there.

I thought the scene on the tube was very well done.. but I have to admit I have no clue what's going on with the rest of it? I'll try stick with it.. but

well that escalated quickly.

Much as I love Stanley Tucci I don’t think I can watch another episode of this. It’s making me anxious.

Oh that was clever, leaving your DNA everywhere.
Reminds me of a woman in the USA who worked on DNA who herself was sadly murdered. She made sure she got a lot of her murderer’s DNA under her fingernails. There is a book about her case, but unfortunately can’t remember the name of it.

The vicar is deranged isn't he?
If I were his wife I'd let her out of there !

I liked that
love Steven Moffat

I liked it too. A real change from recent tv dramas

I know it was good cos I couldn’t pick up my phone and post.

Yhe blood and wee everywhere was genius. How was the wife so calm?

I just don’t get why he wasn’t honest to start with. He should have called the police as soon as he knew what was on the files.

and if my partner hurt a woman and locked her in our shed (no basement) I’d call the police myself. I wouldn’t chuck her a pile of takeaway menus 🙄

Corking stuff. For once.

I enjoyed that but found it quite scary in parts and I’m not easily scared!

I didn’t quite get the explanation of the payment to the Senator. The prisoner said he was getting the payment twice? I don’t understand the “twice” bit.

What is Edgar's real connection to the vicar ?
Or his mum ?
Bound to be a reason he is protecting him

Same. I don’t binge and just watch tv pace

Oh dear I feel all I do these days is come on @Blondeshavemorefun TV threads and moan about how awful the programmes are. I hated this, it was trying to be all darkly humorous but was too daft. I’m out.
