A prisoner on death row in the US, a vicar in a quiet English town, and a maths teacher trapped in a cellar cross paths in the most unexpected way.

Hmmmm, managed to alienate this male view within the first five minutes of watching. That's quite an accomplishment for any show but well, I have not come to expect much from the UK's BBC, of late.
Yes, its supposed to be a crime thriller but well, you know, "the message". So we get toxic masculinity thrust in our faces from the get go. Suffice to say, tiresome "straw man" or is that "straw person", nonsense.
When it finally gets around to the small matter of a story, its over the top and implausible.Senators seeking advice from death row criminal consultants and yes, once again, the toxic masculinity messaging, is front and centre.
In summary, to my mind implausible, rather silly and loaded down with the usual, divisive, social justice messaging. That's in spite of decent funding, from the long suffering UK tax payer and a strong cast.
