Is it for me?
Fans of secret-agency worlds and amnesia puzzles will settle in, provided they can live with some corny dialogue and a mix that gets messy. A note waiting at Myfanwy's desk tells her to trust no one, written by the earlier self she is trying to catch up with. Emma Greenwell plays the present version as stressed and out of her depth, and Olivia Munn's Monica gets the showier effects.
Before you start
It moves slowly and stays that way, so if the first two episodes feel sluggish, that is the speed; Monica's storyline runs alongside Myfanwy's.
1 season, 8 episodes, 60 min each, about 8 hours so far
