Tedium on stilts and then some!

This is a hard watch. I found myself fiddling with my phone half way through episode three. Just has not brought me in. The extremely vague and only premise holding each episode together is some fire. What fire, what caught on fire. Nothing... Not enough to even make me compelled to watch for the answer. Just individual stories of dysfunctional families with psychotic protagonists implausibly all ending up in one Scottish caravan park at the same time. One of them might have lit a fire. Yawn. Not sure if I can see this through. If I try I'll have to try to actually watch the second half of episode three this time ...

I'm finding this tedious. The glacial pace. The episodes dealing with each family separately. There are too many good actors in this for it to be so bad...
