The day Tom Parfitt moves from his home into residential care, he becomes the sole witness to a violent death.

I decided to watch this upon viewing the C4 show 'Gogglebox' (a show about people watching telly in their own homes, for our international friends) and seeing the people at home moving forward in their seats, with their hands over their mouths, then jumping at certain parts. I thought it looked creepy and interesting.

Having watched it - it really is!

Firstly, it is beautifully shot. The landscape shots are truly atmospheric. And the score is tense and captivating.

Then there's the cast. The three main characters (the old man - Michael Palin, the young girl - Jodie Comer and the copper - Mark Addy) are all excellently played. I was especially impressed with Jodie Comer, who was also marvelous in My Mad, Fat Diary - I'm expecting great things from her in future!

And then there's the story, which is where I have a bit of trouble (and is the only reason I didn't rate it higher). I am intrigued by it - I can't work out how it's going to end yet. I do keep seeing bits that remind me of other work, though. I can see plot elements of The Ring (original Japanese version), Dark Water (original Japanese version), the Piano, Inception... I could go on. And I'm finding this somewhat distracting: "ooh, where have I seen that before..?"

It is good, though. I will certainly be watching the final hour with interest :-)
