Not sure this is much good really. David Mitchell doesn't have much range, the 'comedy' moments aren't funny, the whole premise is daft - people disappearing without a word is annoying and dramatically difficult to sustain. It's also rather gloomily photographed.
Did enjoy Derek Jacobi as an absent-minded teacher. With Anna Maxwell Martin, Dipo Ola (We Hunt Together, Landscapers), Sophie Willan, Gerran Howell (1917), Dorothy Atkinson, Ralph Ineson.
A six part BBC production, with a clear path to another series as Ludwig is now employed as a consultant (i.e. Professor T again) and his brother is still missing - not that anyone seems to care much...
