Episode #2.6

A damp squib.

Darian York steps into Lennox&apos;s shoes, acting solely in the best interests of the company, his mission, to get to the heart of The Ancestor, only he finds he&apos;s facing a determined team, including former colleague, Lennox.

It felt like it was going somewhere in the previous couple of episodes, but what should and could have been an exciting finale, was a snooze fest. It&apos;s such a dialogue heavy episode, every action is laboured, watching Magnus go in search of Bremner, it went on and on, and on.

The story is so muddled, it&apos;s as if they&apos;re making points about capitalism and climate change, but don&apos;t really know how to frame them.

Character transformations have been a major issue this series, Hutton&apos;s character was all over the place, and here it&apos;s Lennox&apos;s turn, talk about a complete 180!

I have a feeling another series will be in the pipeline, with any luck it&apos;ll be a more cohesive run, I can&apos;t lie, I think this second series has been a disappointment.

4/10.
