The Terror, the first episode of
The Terror was pretty coy about showing us much terror. Consider that corrected by episode two, which feels like a succession of albatrosses being cross-bowed.
Remarkably though, eight months into their icebound lay-up, things are pretty perky on HMS Terror. With a lot of jolly hurrah-ing the search parties set off into the white nothingness in search of a lead toward open water, and Franklin wants to thaw relations with Crozier. Those are the two big threads of this episode: the lads on the ice wander off into the opening five minutes of

The Terror: it s Master and Commander, with monsters. The horror series from producer Ridley Scott, which was originally shown on the US channel AMC in 2018 and now finally arrives on BBC Two, follows a boatload of arctic explorers on the run from a vengeful spirit that dwells in those frozen wastes.
Ice-monsters may be fictional (at least, one would hope so), but the show is based on historical fact. It s the latest retelling of the doomed 1845-46 expedition of Captain John Franklin and Francis Crozier, and their two ominously named ships – Erebus (one of the rivers in the Greek underworld) and Terror.
