    We were not super impressed with the creepiness or scares in Passenger, but we did like Wunmi Mosaku’s performance, and that may be enough to make this show tolerable.

    Frankly, I’d be perfectly happy with less of the monster stuff and more of the delightfully dysfunctional Wells family – but the show is gunning for much more than that: mystery, domestic drama, fantasy, thriller. Let’s see if it can pull it off.

    Buchan draws from a wealth of influences to create something that feels like it is attempting to synthesise the entire canon of TV crime in a 50-minute episode. But while Passenger is undoubtedly guilty of doing too much, this approach does ensure there is plenty of good stuff in there.
