Loved the idea behind this and the acting is good. Not impressed with the bouncing of the time line, little hard to follow but it figured itself out. Horrible ending to this little series then I noticed it's 2014 and never completed the first season. Why would Prime even bother loading it then. What a waste of time and space if not even going to finish the story.
It had potential but all of that was lost in 2014 when they failed to complete it.
Wish I'd have read the reviews before I started watching, it was a really good, gripping drama- although the constant forward & rewinding of time gets a bit confusing after a hard days work !
Then comes the Clanger! The ending, what bloody ending?? There isn't one! It's like someone just presses stop halfway through a story !
Very annoyed that I wasted so much time on this. However if they made a new series I'd watch it but only if there was a conclusion at the end of it !
Note to self - check reviews before watching something new !

I am a person who doesn't normally write reviews. But in this case felt I had to. If you don't want to waste four hours of your life don't watch this unless you like a good drama with no ending whatsoever. I watched this and enjoyed it up until the end. A very very lazy ending in which there was no ending. I feel sorry for all the actors involved in this production. The ending was so abrupt that I thought that there must be one more episode to come, but sadly not. I don't imagine I am alone in this conclusion and its a real shame because if the writer had had some imagination this could have been a corker of an ending to the mystery of what happened to Amber.
People are upset cause they didn't get spoonfed the answers at the end.
The entire point just escapes them. Obviously theyve never lived through real life tragedy before..

I have never been so disappointed with a series at the end. It was so intriguing for so long but I am devastated and angry by the lack of an ending episode!

Started with 6/10 from me in episode 1, then went to went up to 7 then crashed. I agree with Cipherz' comment - if you don't want to waste 4 hours of your life - don't bother watching this. Though it had great potential, it went nowhere!
BBC drama is normally very good but this was the most disappointing new programme I've seen for a long time. This show was developing some interesting themes, but the annoying production technique of dipping back into the past did not really work, as they never showed enough of another point of view of the story to add anything significant to the present situation.
Very disappointing. Evidence that the the BBC is still on a very downward spiral.

I read these reviews a few days ago but today, they went right out of my head when I chose to add this series to my Amazon Prime viewing. The acting was great but the story became more and more convoluted and confusing as each possible answer to the mystery was rejected. It is not a spoiler to tell you that, unless they have another season int he works (unlikely as this series is from 2014) you will be left hanging. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.

This show is not superficial in it's story telling, developing the character and showing their side of the story. It is very in depth story telling from the perspective of the people who want to find Amber and what they are going through, how they are coping. We find out new information from these different perspectives. Some turn out as a lead and some don't. There are a lot of suspicious people but sometimes what they have to hide has nothing to do with Amber. It reminds me of "The killing" the show spent 2 seasons doing this but the mystery was solved. I'd like to see more about the friend, Jenny and the grandmother, Of course we know not every missing person is solved but the story is so good I wouldn't mind another season.

Indefinitely. Started watching episode one. Typical opening of missing person story, but intriguing because of actors involved.
Thought I would check reviews.
When season two shows up 12 to 18 to who knows how many months from now, I MIGHT remember Amber, I might start again on episode one. Maybe.

If you like to watch series like CSI and Criminal Minds, where the bad guys are always quickly caught and the investigation is always successfully solved, this is not for you. They will not give you the ending you want.
This season is closer to real life. Days go by and what you have got are a lot of questions and hope or a little bit of it. You can't walk in the shoes of a dad, mother and brother of a missing girl because it's too much hard to imagine it but you'll think about their feelings, reactions and how they move on in their lives.
This series is not about Amber. It's about the 607 people go missing every single day without a trace. Where are they now?
Curiosity: Amber is the name of the alert for Child Abduction Emergency.
