We thoroughly enjoyed the series and were left guessing until the end, expecting a fantastic twist or big 'reveal', but disappointingly the end was much duller than we expected.

Unfortunately, the '8' we would have given the series has been reduced to a 6 because of this.

The final episode throws light on the series of events leading up to the fall but it took its time in getting there. The story could basically have been told in an hour but was dragged out over 6 episodes.

I may rewatch if i ever suffer from insomnia.

Adapted from a Kindle bestseller it tells the story of a woman recovering from a mystery fall which leaves her without memory of the last year or so. She has to try and work out what has happened in that missing period.

Pros - a good performance from Connie Nielsen in the lead role, fairly well made and watchable and a plotline with a lots of twists and surprises.

Cons - some wobbly and stilted direction and clunky dialogue (the interior monologue device didn't work for me at all). Sadly it got a bit daft and was a couple of episodes too long for its story.

Verdict: there's a lot of better dramas out there, it felt like style over substance and by the end I'd lost interest. Average.

I enjoy slow burn drama but this was excruciatingly dragged out. The characters never really took off - especially Christopher Eccleston's part - he seemed awkward and wooden, not helped by the uninspired writing. At most this is a four part, even three part drama. Consequently it was diluted and not in the slightest bit compelling - which is a crying shame because the synopsis and setting had great potential.

Really enjoyed this. Intriguing and engaging. Kept me guessing until the end.

Maybe I move in the wrong circles, but I don't know any family that swears as much as that one. Got on my nerves after a while. The plot started off well, but missed the mark. I haven't read the book so I don't know if it was true to the original story.

Just enough in each episode to get you wanting to watch the next one. Just.

Very repetitive, average to poor acting from everyone, but great to see a cameo appearance from Russell Brand, oh sorry, Nick Blood.

Far too long, as others have said, it was a three-parter at best. It DID have a sort of 'proper' ending, but by part 6, who cared really?!

Don't waste your time with this 6 hours that could have been told in 1 or 2. Not a bad story and a bit different, but the two main characters are both annoying and I struggled to like either of them.

Jo seems to have it all, a loving family, a great home, success, one thing she's missing however, her memory, after waking up from a fall, she's missing the last year of memories.

It gets off to a pretty frustrating start, the early episodes are pretty slow, and padded, but my advice is stick with it, from part 4 onwards, it goes up a few gears, it becomes way more intense and a lot more engaging, the last two episodes I thought were excellent.

It's a good old fashioned mystery, you'll have to put the pieces of the jigsaw together, it's very satisfying when it call comes together.

It is beautifully filmed and shot, it looks and sounds awesome, superbly produced. The best element for me, the acting, what a terrific cast, each person gets their chance to shine, and they do.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, 8/10.

Interesting so many bad reviews on here. Definitely seems polarising and not usually my thing to seek out but was pleasantly surprised.

In many ways it was reminiscent of Girl on a Train and Momento.

Jo has a memory gap from her fall down the stairs and her phone is missing. Her husband seems caring but also volatile. From the outset it feels like half truths are being told and then the dreams and flashbacks start shortly followers by hallucinations. What is real? What isn't? How did she end up badly injured at the bottom of the stairs? The outcome however is a little predictable and some of the characters are cringe worthy. Could have easily have been two episodes shorter without missing much. Overall, if you're stuck in isolation with nothing else more pressing, it's worth a binge.

I just ifnished watching 6 hours of this and hoping with each episode for some real drama and excitement and what did we get?

A very limp drama with no surprises and a lacklustre and unsurprising zero twist in the tale ending.

Ecclestone weak and woefully miscast and just a waste of those 6 hours for zero payoff - If this is the standard; and it seems like it is, of British Drama these days, then we had maybe better just stop making it!

A woman wakes at the bottom of her staircase badly bleeding and bruised. Rushed to hospital she suffers from amnesia and on recovering she tries to figure out what has been happening in her life. Her life was far from perfect.

Stars Connie Nielsen and Christopher Eccleston.

Engaging mystery drama where the viewer uncovers the story alongside the protagonist.

I mostly enjoyed this. Connie Nielsen does a good enough job and the story moves along nicely with lots of twists and turns as her memories return. It's well written and I like that you get to see and understand more than one perspective.

My main complaint is that the story drags a bit particularly towards the end, when the story is largely explained. This could have been told in probably 4 episodes. I really didn't really like the ending, the big reveal was not so big by then.

Tries to be moody and atmospheric. Misses it by a country mile. An episode could be summarised in a 5 minute short film and even then would leave you thinking so what.

Ecclestone is always great. Enjoyed this show. Stunning visuals. Well directed. Intelligently written.

Enjoyed the series overall however a little slow in parts. Could/should have been a four parter.

Interesting mini twists and a reasonable ending However, the sudden changes of the bruising on Jo's face is a medical mystery that needs to be investigated by The Lancet.

Well rounded exploration of women of a certain age. Really enjoyed - gripping storyline and the acting was extremely good. I've read the book and this version is a very interesting take on it. Quite different, but the issues explored are still relevant to today! Recommended and well worth a watch for all.

... have seen Connie Nielsen in a bunch of works and she's always been good... this production was overall just okay... slow-confusion-phony in several-spots yet overall somewhat worth the time viewing... now in her mid-fifty's she still remains very attractive-alluring, helping carry this production along its shaky path

... casting-misstep-exception to it all is Eccleston... he just does not work-fit-in along w-either of these two women... w/o him in with-them is one feeling, then he comes onscreen and entire dynamic changes instantly... wrong for the part, his acting wrong for the character... in other productions he's been above average... this performance-role here just misses-the-mark-entirely... having-requiring-asking is it the-actor or the-direction that's amiss

... ending's especially messy, script and acting dropping the production down at least another notch possibly two... stars being-as EP's not always valuable to the work.

Weak story. Bad casting. Unbelievable events. Boring long takes. Clumsy editing. Badly acted. After 2 disappointing episodes we checked out the ending but shouldn't have bothered. Avoid.

The rating is too low, I think this is one of the best mini series I've ever seen.

You never guess what is the final outcome, the story keeps you in it's grip until the very end.

Beautiful imagery, the way some moments are filmed.

Excellent drama.

This show could be amazing. Acting is great per usual with the actors, but the writing in parts makes no sense. The main character who lost her memory, literally runs away or tells people to go away when they are trying to discuss her past with her; which would give her answers. It makes no sense. It makes for a very frustrating watch.

Absolute garbage, nothing happens, Most boring thing I've ever watched, I was actually thinking about what I will have do next week in work, how does stuff like this get funding, must be money laundering, only excuse.
