When a house explodes in a quiet Oxford suburb and a girl disappears in the aftermath, neighbor Sarah Tucker becomes obsessed with finding her and enlists the help of private investigator Zoë Boehm.

1x1

Well done! I enjoyed it, even got some unexpected https://next-episode.net/utopia vibes, mostly (but not only) because of another great Adeel Akhtar performance. smile

There were more comedic elements than expected, but quite low-level, not distracting from the story.

▼Spoiler

This looked like a continuity goof to me: when their Ferrari-driving visitor left the flat, nobody was locking the door... but a few seconds later, she had to unlock the door before she could open it.

All in all... good show so far. Recommended!

Re: Down Cemetery Road [Thriller]

Yep, first episode was good.

Liked the pace, the detective duo and especially the metaphors from C. smile

It was also a great introduction into the world. At the end of the first episode you know all major players, their roles and roughly what's going on (to the extend of wanting more). Missed this with many shows lately.

And the best part is

with the trailer and the death of Joe you know that a shift in storytelling is coming. And if you liked the trailer you gonna also like the shift. Very well done indeed.

I've also thought about this while watching it. smile On the one hand it's nice to have everybody introduced, but not introducing everybody right away leaves more room for contemplation: who's behind XYZ, what are the motives, etc.

Ha! I had totally forgotten that Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (who plays a vital role here) was also in Utopia! big_smile
