Out There

Martin Clunes is very good in this, as is Gerran Howell (playing much younger than his real age) as the drug-dealing friend of Clunes' son. Carly-Sophia Davies as the girfriend is also quite a lot older than her role suggests and she performs it well, though she perhaps doesn't look quite as young as her character should. Louis Serkis is closest to the right age for his character as Clunes's son and is adequate. He is supposed to be traumatised for most of the story, but I could imagine someone else doing a better job. As with most of such serials, it is stretched out over too many episodes (by about two) and the ending is not satisfying. I won't say more, so as to avoid spoilers. Nevertheless, it kept me engaged right through.

People are right about Clunes's accent. Love this actor, he's a natural, but unfortunately they have tried to make him Welsh. If they wanted this character to be Welsh they should have got a Welsh actor.

It's great that it's set in Wales. Beautiful country and unique people. I blame the director. The one mitigating excuse for Clunes's accent is his father is English. But his accent is not continuous - it veers badly between English and Welsh in a single sentence and is distracting. It takes you out of your suspension of disbelief. They should have made him Welsh or English - a whole new barrel of issues to contend with although apparently some say too much is packed into this drama already.

Only on episode one. And will stick with it because like Martin Clunes (let down here by being allowed to make up his own accent), love Wales and the Welsh and am very interested in the subject matter of farmers, youth, county lines etc etc.

I was searching for something fresh to watch, tired of aimlessly scrolling through Netflix and other streaming platforms, when I stumbled upon Out There. From the very first episode, the pacing was spot on, gradually drawing me into the story. We're now on episode 3 or 4, and I'm completely hooked!

Martin Clunes delivers as always, but the real standout for me is Natalia Kostrzewa, who plays Eva. I immediately recognised her from Fool Me Once-her performance here is just as compelling. Her natural acting, alongside Clunes and the rest of the ensemble, is so refreshing to watch.

This is a highly recommended show, and I only hope viewers back in Ireland can access it as well. If you're looking for something to get lost in, give Out There a try!

Very watchable, UK take, on a Breaking Bad type of show.

I surmised, around Episode 3, that this was not a stand alone series as there are too many threads to tie up in just 6 episodes. Usually, that WOULD bother me as I like things to just finish rather than go on & on, stretching the patience of the viewer & diluting the plot (Gangs of London, take note), but this series has some understated characters & the Welsh scenery is lush.

There's really nothing too negative to say other than there being one or two characters who, so far at least, seem surplus to requirement & have a distinct scent of Red Herring about them.

I sincerely hope that all the acting team have signed up for the long haul.

When is a mini series not a mini series when it is a series!

We watched this as we knew that as it was classed as a mini series by IMDB it would be only one series and NOT multiple series'

Imagine how disappointed we were when the last episode finished leaving an unfinished story!

It was a great series deserving 8-9 out of 10 until the final scene of the final episode resulting in the whole family grunting and groaning with dismay and the thought if we won't remember anything about this when the second series comes out!

Please please please categorise the TV series' correctly as it is really annoying!
