With the series moving from the UK to San Francisco, Millie (Rachael Stirling) and Jean (Julie Graham) have been dealt a brand new helping of gruesome murders that they must solve from the strange patterns and messages left behind.

Episode one won plenty of praise from fans of the original series, which also starred Anna Maxwell Martin and Sophie Rundle, after it aired on ITV.

However, not everyone was completely won over by the ITV revival, with some saying the new version was "too slow" and hoping it would pick up for next week's episode.
