The Terror BBC 9pm

Starting tonight, The Terror centres on a doomed Royal Navy expedition to the Arctic, which departed from England in 1845 and never returned.

I'm hoping this will be good as it stars a few of my favourite actors, Jared Harris, Ciarán Hinds and Tobias Menzies.

In 1847-8, the crew of a real life Royal Naval expedition (later known as Franklin's expedition) led by three captains, Sir John Franklin, Francis Crozier and James Fitzjames, is sent to find the Arctic's fabled treacherous Northwest Passage but instead discovers a monstrous polar bear-like predator, a cunning and vicious Gothic horror that stalks the ships in a desperate game of survival. However, it soon becomes clear that that's just the beginning of their troubles. As things worsen and civilized behavior disintegrates in favor of survival at any cost, the crew must simultaneously battle the elements, the supernatural and eventually - themselves. The captains' only ally in all of this becomes a mute Inuit woman, who lives as an outcast from her tribe but still follows their old animistic religion.

I’ve read all about it ,the expedition ,in RT .Don’t know if I’m up to all those episodes but I’ll have a look at the first .
Ciaran Hinds is a favourite of mine too but I won’t watch just because he’s in it .

A slow burner but watchable, probably because the acting is so good. It's on iplayer if anyone is interested.

I watched the first series and wasn't impressed enough to get past episode three.

I watched it until the boy regurgitated a liquid and was on the bed and begging the Doctor not to do something.

He was a nice kid and I’d like to know what happened to him but l don’t want to ruin it for others.
