Is it for me?
Fans of pulpy ticking-clock thrillers who want to switch off and ride along will enjoy it, even when the logic stretches. Joe Cole plays an everyman who improvises rather than kicks down doors, and Alexandra Roach is sharp as the officer who works out what the hackers are doing from London. When the train stops at Motherwell and some passengers refuse to get off, the evacuation turns into a mess.
Before you start
The story runs as one continuous night in close to real time, so watch in order; it plays best in a few long sittings.
1 season, 6 episodes, 58 min each, about 6 hours so far
