Deep and intriguing.

Shaun is taken by the CIA, but footage of him commiting the attack of Hannah Roberts is uploaded to YouTube.

This is truly great viewing, perhaps not quite the standard of the previous two episodes, it's wonderfully complex, baffling drama with tonnes of intrigue and suspense.

Visually a bit grim at times, it will have you on the edge of your seat, it is captivating. I adore Lia Williams, and was so delighted to see her now playing a bigger, more substantial role, a wonderful actress.

It's getting more intricate, all I hope is that they don't mess up the ending. I love a conspiracy drama. 8/10

Truffle Hog

Ron Perlman makes an appearance as a mystery CIA man. He just wants to know what Emery has done with Hannah Roberts.

Emery manages to escape but he finds out that seeing is certainly not believing.

Rachel Carey thinks the same. She believes that the bus images are being cleverly manipulated.

The question is whether Emery is being manipulated or set up?

I get an inkling The Captive wants to be a political conspiracy thriller in the mould of Edge of Darkness. I really felt that this could breakout to be a superior thriller but it has not quite reached that point as it wants to hold its cards close to its chest and go for misdirection.
