David Cooper is missing, his family don't know where he is, he's underwater, in a state of sensory deprivation.
I rate this serial quite highly, sensory deprivation was quite a popular theme back in the seventies, I recall an episode of The Omega Factor featuring an almost identical plot. It is very much worth a look, a young Denis Lawson features as David.
I felt the introduction of David's mother was a little strange, her total lack of concern or care seemed pointless, maybe just filling time.
All in all though, it's very watchable, thia first episode is very good, if a little confusing at times, it puts me on edge seeing him under the water, it makes me feel uncomfortable, it must have impacted on people when it first aired. 7/10
