I saw this on Netflix, it's a really promising start to a very interesting story. I didn't know Netflix were doing pilots, nor in business with the indie sector so this is a very exciting step for all of us who watch their content regularly and like shows such as Utopia and Black Mirror. This show feels very British but is also handling story on its own terms. I was reminded of Black Mirror as this also subverts story convention and run its story in a mini-series format for this first season. This feels anything but conventional but be warned, these first three chapters end on a massive cliff hanger, so there looks to be a wait in store before it goes any further. I would say bear this in mind before you watch this otherwise you will be annoyed! The story set up in these three parts (intriguing length for a pilot) combines sci-fi, the paranormal, a government conspiracy and a massive great big quarantine zone unlike anything I've seen right in the middle of a future-set British metropolis. I would say get to the third episode as it gets visually really interesting right there. The vibe is dark but the show looks great, and the cast are really strong at pulling you into this world. I would recommend this if you are the type who looks to spot future hits and gets into the action early.
