Aye, an 8 year old looking about twice that age. An interesting way to interpret Atko’s narrative structure using a narrator and the flashbacks, and the images mirroring the book’s ‘darkness fell’ refrain to confirm that she’s snuffed it again. The post-war ‘flu sequences were handled very well. I am glad that I ‘read’ the book first though.
I think all four episodes will be on iPlayer now from what I read in the publicity blurb. There are some challenging plotlines to come.
