Anyone with Sky Showcase giving this a go?

Sci-Fi story from the 50's by John Wyndham adapted for the 2020's, and so far, albeit a little slow, finding it quite good!

Just watching 1st episode, sending a helicopter over the area was ridiculous,there was only 1 possible outcome.....and now a pathetic attempt at cpr by someone who should know better, doubt I'll stick with it

Watched them all, quite enjoyed to be honest.

The kids were great wee actors!

We watched them all too. I can’t remember the last time I saw such low budget, poorly acted ste.

Does seem to be a love or hate thing, but didn't get chance to watch any tonight as we were out so should finish it off tomorrow evening!

Binged this over the last few days and was a bit disappointed, although I agree with the previous comment about the children being great actors.
