Fear

Despite the exceptional performances of the actors, the plot was disappointingly predictable and resulted in a convoluted and meaningless conclusion. I was waiting for the plot twist however it never came. Why did the guy Jan have to bug the house? What's the reason behind the death of his sister? I just don't understand I'm so confused. I should never watch bothered watching this. Why did the Mum avoid passing the phone to his dad? Is it because the dad is a killer which is a joke itself? Ruined a very good actor wasted time don't bother watching it. Hopefully there won't be a season two that would be painful.

A young family move to tranquil Park Terrace in Glasgows west end. How lovely. They have purchased a multi million pound property, despite no real evidence of income..mmm.. Yes Yes, we know he is up is an architect and she is a scientist etc but she has no job and he has no commissions...go figure. Anyway a thorn in the side of this lovely wholesome family is the NEIGHBOUR IN THE BASEMENT..This poor guy is so obviously living with poor mental health and his fragility is totally obvious to anyone, except this pair. How this poor man could afford to rent a flat here( which is generally a few thousand a month) is never explained. Anyway things go pair shaped as expected and Martin spends his days angry. Theres some attempt at a back story involving his dad but its just a bit of filler, which sort of sums up this series. Its mainly filler with loads of plot holes. I wont give the ending away but it will not suprise you and by that point you wont really care anyway. I kept watching this waiting for it to improve and it never did. If this was set in a council house in Glasgow nobody would watch it for longer than 10 mins. As previously noted, the house is the star.

It's a run of the mill bill-payer for all concerned. Predictable garbage. Mick Ford the writer has done much better work, which wouldn't be hard in this case. The dialogue is old and the acting embarrassingly formulaic.

I can't believe the actors involved would go for this nonsense. It's just like so many similar themed series before it, but it has no redeeming qualities of itself. I'm struggling to find the necessary 600 words to complete this review.

Predictable, unchallenging, and an insult to the viewer. Like I said, it's earning money for them but in the most shameless way possible. Dreadful.

I spent the best part of 3 hours hoping the family would ignore the nuisance of a neighbour downstairs and get around to furnishing and decorating their house to make it a home instead of an austere cold shell. I was also wondering how much a window cleaner and a cleaner would cost. Yes it was that slow and boring to watch. At the end of 3 episodes it is not clear to me who were the characters I am supposed to like? Nor what is the moral of the story if there is one? Apart from being left wondering how much window cleaners cost in Glasgow, I think it would have been interesting to find out if the previous owners of the house had had similar experiences. My recommendation is 3 stars because there is only enough interesting content for 1 episode.

This started out with a lot of promise, which it sadly didn't deliver. I totally expected it to go a different way to how it did. It starts off a bit unnerving but just gets a bit repetitive and a bit monotonous.

It felt crammed into the three episodes. No real explanations or backgrounds and no proper conclusion. I actually thought there must be another episode. Maybe 4 slightly shorter ones would've been better. Because of the lack of background I found I didn't really care about the characters.

It's a shame because it's got a great cast and the acting is possibly better than the script deserves. The house is stunning. Hence my 6.
