Scott says: "Is it a must watch? Yes"

"The main premise is about whether videos you see as evidence, like CCTV, can be taken at face value.

"It's a drama about a soldier who has returned from war. He finds that evidence that was used for his conviction was then overturned.

"He’s having a normal life - then there’s a twist that involves some CCTV footage that puts that whole question into focus. And I think that it’s one of those shows where they reveal parts of the plot in drips so you don’t really see what you want to see.

“It doesn’t necessarily try to copy Bodyguard, but I think has definitely got that Bodyguard-type-vibe. So if you’re a fan of that you’ll be a fan of this because it’s a suspenseful thriller - 'who is telling the truth?'

“It is always the case that drama is really great when reflecting a wider issue that society is facing at the moment. Right now we talk a lot about fake news – and this is a different way of tapping into that subject in a way that doesn’t feel like you are just watching the news again. It's entirely fictional but the themes are there and that’s really interesting to me.

“Is it a must watch? Yes.”

Hayley says: "It is much better than it sounds"

“You are just as confused and tense as the characters and they do it really well. This is an interesting thriller in the world where deepfake [videos] exist - these are where things can be manipulated so you are never sure what is true and what actually happened; where true becomes a matter of perspective rather than something that actually happened.

“I thought it was really interesting. It stars Holliday Grainger - who I know from the Bonnie and Clyde mini series years ago. And Callum Turner from Fantastic Beasts. It’s also got Ron Pearlman and Famke Janssen in it. When Ron Pearlman shows up,you know something is about to go down.

"I really liked this. I thought that it had some interesting things to say about soldiers and PTSD as well.

“It is a tension builder and it is a thriller and it is a new thing to wait for week by week.

“It is much better than it sounds."

The Capture is on BBC One on Tuesdays at 21:00, starting on 3 September 2019.
