I thought it was a good miniseries. Good work by two of my favorite actors Ciaran Hinds and Toby Menzies
Just finished watching it and loved it. I've now been learning about the real Franklin expedition and now think that if it was just told as a survival story as opposed to a horror story that it would have been just as gripping. Not all survival stories end in survival!
The decades spent looking for them also make a good story, one of the ships that were part of the search was HMS Resolute which suffered a similar fate to the Terror and Erebus. However, the Resolute was found by an American whaling ship and returned to Queen Victoria. As an offering of thanks, timbers from the ship were made into a desk which now sits in the Oval Office!
The Erebus was finally found in 2014 and the Terror in 2016 - mind blowing!

Been a fan of Ciaran Hinds since he was Caeser in HBOs Rome from way back. Same with the other guy Toby, they were great in it.
As for this show The Terror... heard it was good and completely forgot about it. Gonna watch this soon!
Was a good series I saw it some time ago, one of those you just don't want to miss a episode
Just watched this the other week! Yeah it was great, definitely well worth the time!
By the way, just posted about a new show called The North Water. Fans of the Terror will dig it! Check it out here!
Just watched it the other week and really enjoyed it. Very similar setting to the terror. Colin Farrell makes a great nutter!
Agree, I enjoyed both series.
