OK, I did enjoy it. I am saying this because I am going to have a rant that will involve
spoilers
.
1) Why do the BBC/ITV insist on giving Julie Graham leading roles.
2) What the heck was with the death? OK, I get that people died from the virus BUT I don't get why everyone died at the same time when it was evident that people contracted the virus at different times AND it was even mentioned that the virus acted with different speeds for different people.
3) Cars - how come in some scenes we're told that the epidemic of death happened almost instantaneously yet in others we're told the streets are completely empty.
4) Why were we told that the death rate was 90% yet we were seeing far less of a figure. Statistically speaking on Julie Grahams street alone there should have been at least 10 people IF you work on the basis of family homes have 3 people on and there are 33 houses (which is unlikely as that looked like a long as street).
I know its nit picking BUT the thing is, this stuff is easily solved if someone just put the thought in.
1) Don't hire her ever again
2) Have the virus spread exponentionally over a week and have people dying over said week. I know we see a couple of dead bodies before that night BUT we're then told everyone else died at the same time.
3) Place cars along the road - not just ONE conveniently placed for Mrs Boring to find.
4) Make the number more realistic with the setting - say 1% or even less than one percent of people survive.
Gah - I promise though, I did like it.
Ohh one final thing - After watching it, I don't think I wanna see Paterson Joseph as the next Doctor, he was pretty bland with the serious acting
