Kate and Martin escape from personal tragedy to an Island Retreat. Cut off from the outside world, their attempts to recover are shattered when a Man is washed ashore, with news of airborne killer disease that is sweeping through Europe.
Excellent performances from the cast elevate this otherwise slightly flawed a hokey interloper story.
This is a neat, well-crafted three-hander, making good use of its location; it really is a meaty role for Bell, who lets rip in what might be his most eye-catching part since Billy Elliot.
Whether the soldier is a saviour or a psycho keeps things interesting, although the tension is undercut by the story's predictability.
Passable.
Tense if rather monotonously bleak.
