I'm hooked! As you say, Tegan it's a relief for the plot not to involve a missing/abused girl. I like the combination of survivalist movement and maverick medical research. It wasn't a great surprise that his wife was being kept alive, but I couldn't help wondering what the reaction of her parents and daughter will be if she is successfully cured!

Yes I'm not sure either. Didn't really grab me. One more go next week.

Bit gory - will give it another episode

I'm not sure either [and it's not for the squeamish, is it!]. But at least it isn't another 'adolescent girl goes missing' storyline.

Just watched it.

Hmm. Not sure about this one but to be fair early days.

I will carry on with it though.

I already have it on 'record' to watch later.

The clips for it look very promising.

It is another ' Walter Presents ' and I have not been disappointed by any of them yet.

My favourite so far was 'The Team'.

Great, thanks Tegan, I wanted something new to try. Let's hope it's good.

Thanks *Tegan"
I don't watch much TV especially in the summertime.
However I do love a bit of Scandi Noir.
Although it does seem to somehow signal that Autumn is on its waysad

Ch4 9:00. Valkgrien [sp]. Saw it advertised on facebook; no idea if it's any good but, having finished watching Top of the Lake I need something to fill the gap, and this does look promising. Plus the fact that, being on Ch 4 if my catchup tv stops working again I can always watch it on +1.
