The lives of a prisoner on death row, a journalist looking for a story, a vicar in a sleepy English town and a maths tutor trapped in a cellar intertwine in a deadly way.

Condemned prisoner Jefferson Grieff has a mission for journalist Beth Davenport, and vicar Harry Watling faces an impossible choice.

As Harry’s dilemma worsens, the fate of his family hangs in the balance - but he’s determined to do the right thing. Meanwhile, Beth Davenport meets one of Jefferson Grieff’s helpers in the outside world, who delivers a chilling warning. In the cellar, Janice’s desperation grows.

As events spiral out of control, Jefferson Grieff prepares to face execution - and time is also running out for Janice Fife in the cellar. An increasingly desperate Harry Watling struggles to do the right thing - but can he stay on the side of the angels and still keep his wife and son safe?

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.
