    What we hope is that The Catch gives us a couple of twists and turns that makes it less predictable than we think it’s going to be after watching the first episode.

    With more atmosphere and sharper dialogue, The Catch would have the makings of something really memorable and less disposable.

    It’s one of those second-tier thrillers that the broadcaster does so well – barrels along, doesn’t tax the brain, will not appear on any Bafta shortlists but is an enjoyable, easy watch with plenty of twists that you may or may not see coming.

    Jason Watkins is a fabulous actor, so I kept thinking that there must be a catch with The Catch (Channel 5). So far it feels worryingly like a schlocky potboiler.
