Anybody make it through the first one of this?
It's going to be hard work keeping track of the story if it keeps going back in small bites for the next 5 weeks!

Just about, not sure why they felt the need to keep rewinding events.
Unless it all becomes clear as the series develops.

Watched it last night and quite odd to keep track of whats's going on. Will stick with it though to see if it gets better.

I'll give it a couple more episodes and see how it goes. It wasn't terrible, but I'm not sure it's worth the hassle of trying to keep track of stuff.

It was a bit like watching Memento. I enjoyed it though.

Yeah, felt the concept started to come together in the last third.

I guess it'll work backwards through all the attacks/murders and leap back to act one again retrieving that camera chip.

Wasn't convinced with the first 30 mins but the last 30 upped the ante and I was left looking forward to next weeks.

I gave up after 20 mins or so. Figure it required a greater portion of my attention than I was willing to give.

Another post reminded me - was that a Ford "bug eye" Scorpio that the wife and daughter were brought to the police station in? Why?

I thought that too. Also the strange number plates from a country I didn't recognise.

Also the choice of a very beaten Hyundai for the main mans car was a bit out of sorts too.

Anyone still watching this and managing to keep tabs on what's going on. I must admit it has been hard going so far but I intend to stick with it for another week at least. E type for £5K......... why do I never get offered bargains like this LOL

Nope, lost the plot trying to keep up. I don't want my TV shows to feel like an exam.

Writers and producers trying to be too clever for their own good, they've made a right dogs dinner of it.

Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul have the same format of car choice. I suspect that's where the idea probably came from.

Yes it's not knitting together too well.

Although his assistant seems to like having sex.

As no one has commented on this this week I must be the only one left watching it.
Three weeks in and its not getting any better.
I'm glad I had the sense to record Liar on the other side, which cosidering it's written by the same writers is 100 times better.
I hope they consider Rellik to be an experiment that didn't work?

Sometimes hard to follow but worth peservering with.
Nice twist in the last episode I never saw coming
