7/10
A solid first episode.

Alice Newman gets a massive shock, when she sees brilliant, respected climate scientist Rob Chance wandering around in front of her, the last time she saw him, some fifteen years ago, he scammed money from her and her father.

It's definitely an interesting start, it put me in mind of Rain Dogs from earlier in the year, it's a similar vibe. Initially I thought it was going to be dramedy series, and there are a few humorous moments, but it's perhaps more serious.

There are a few questions, didn't Alice become aware of Rob's presence before these events, he seemed to be quite a prominent public figure, I'd also like to know why her mother is siding with him.

Rebekah Station, Marianne Jean Baptiste and Alistair Petrie are all excellent here, every character is sincere, although I could watch Baptiste in anything.

I have high hopes for this new one, The BBC is smashing the dramas this year.

7/10.
