The crew of a Royal Naval expedition searching for the Arctic's treacherous Northwest Passage discovers instead a monstrous predator.

Did not think this was too bad, will give the next one a go

Thanks for the heads up, this is exactly my kind of thing. Wish there were more sea horror flicks out there!

Watched the first 2 eps of this.

It's visually superb and the story is looking pretty decent to be fair.

Very intriguing, first 2 episodes flew by. Can't wait to see what happens.

Oh thanks. I read the Dan Simmons book a very good read especially if you like Arctic & Antarctic history. On the list to watch asap.

This looks great. Familiar duo from Rome/GoT too.

What platform is this on? Netflix or Prime?

That's a bit harsh even though you answered the question.

Watched up to episode 5, it’s not bad.

Not sure if you're still hungover or not so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Netflix and Prime are available around the world including the U.S with it being a streaming service so I was asking which one it was available on.

Might be worth having a bacon sarnie and a cuppa and come back with your happy face on

Oh and if you open your posts with what channel it was on in future it might prevent you having to have cheap shots at other people just a thought.

If you open your eyes, and click on the imba link i posted, it tells you what channel it airs on...

Loving this so far, great cast, great setting. Up to episode 4.

It's airing on Amazon here in Germany.

How do they have 3 years worth of food without modern refrigeration? Or do they not need it given sub-zero temperatures?

Kyo · 10 Apr 2018 at 21:21

Wow simply wow. One of the best series I watched so far this year.

Tinned goods. However, as the cook has been warning, the lead soldering on these are not up to quality, allowing lead to contaminate the interior of the cans. This was due to the contract being awarded to the cheapest supplier just seven week before the expedition sailed. wiki

Salt cured and sealed meats for instance will keep a very long time - decades - without refrigeration - though they might not taste the nicest they will be edible. The problem was often things like lack of fresh foods resulting in lacking vitamins and so on leading to stuff like Scurvy.

Can someone explain what happened to Crozier's men in the end? The survivors rather than rescue the capatain from Hicky obeyed orders and pushed ahead but later you find out their camp decimated and one of his officers had chains hanging from his face. Who did this to them? Did they all go crazy or was it someone else?
