Look, I can’t put it into words, but I was really disappointed by it, I had been really looking forward to it, feel like I wasted 3 hours

To be fair, this was never going to work in just 3 episodes.

Which implies you'd have been happier to waste 8 or 13 hours with a longer series? Or?

In my opinion too many story arcs are spun out over too many episodes. Clearly opinions vary but it's a balancing act. Sometimes you get a single broadcast which felt like it needed a more detailed examination as things seem to be pulled out of thin air. I can't recall anything which wasn't explained, maybe why Stephen Graham's son was inside, but then I might have just forgotten that.

Or that he's never enjoyed a film under 3 hours?

Don't really see the issue of the chap not liking it and not being able to explain why so others can understand why he didn't. Most of us loved it and a odd one or two didnt.

Haven't read all the previous posts as just watched episode 2 and don't want to spoil it for myself.... This is amazing TV for me...intense and scary but very watchable... Sean Bean is so brilliant but so are the rest of the cast. 10/10 so far, hope the final episode didn't let it down.

It won't let it down for you, it's superb.
