I finished it last night too GagaJo. I realise I can’t say much about it because others may still be watching but once I got into it I found it incredibly powerful and thought provoking. It’s definitely one of the best things I’ve watched for a long time.

Finished it. I’m saying nothing.

Yes, it's very good - scary too. I'm tempted to watch the rest of it but will try to resist.

I'm hooked on it now. A bit dystopian for right now, but I've been sucked in and won't can't stop watching.

I've watched it all on iplayer. I thought it was really good and very thought provoking.

I’m on episode three and finding it very good. I don’t really understand the technical stuff but the story is good enough to keep me watching.

You have to stick with this show. We have watched four or five and it’s certainly intriguing.

I’ve watched the first two. Still not sure. I’ll watch another
To decide if I’m going to continue.

I’ve just finished watching all the series, on IPlayer. Absolutely brilliant!
Not everyone’s cup of tea, requires some IT knowledge. On a par with Killing Eve.

I watched the first episode. It really wasn't my cup of tea. I won't be watching any more.

Watched the first two episodes - enjoyed it.

We watched the first episode, it was intriguing but I don't think we will bother with it again. Unless there is absolutely nothing else to watch, of course, which is very likely!
Hope you are all taking care out there, and staying well.

I’m really enjoying it, even if it’s a bit violent. All episodes are on IPlayer so I’m tempted to watch them, but I’ll wait until the good weather turns.

I was surprised that the girlfriend, also in IT didn’t suspect that the burning video could be fake.

And last night, I remembered a short story by Isaac Asimov, The Dead Past.

I watched the first and second episodes last night and tonight. It's based on a book by Alex Garland - a bit of a dystopian nightmare. It reminded me a little bit of the book The Circle.

I thought it was really well done - atmospheric settings and music, good acting and an intriguing plot.
