J. Kelly Nestruck Globe and Mail Aug 6
It’s a testament to Morrissey’s acting skills that he manages to keep Michael unreadable over the course of this slow-burn crime drama, as the investigation turns from his colleagues to his students, and then back again to him. Go to Full Review
Moira MacDonald Seattle Times Jul 24
Myles’ Annie gets some of the series’ sharpest dialogue, and knows just how to twist it. Go to Full Review
Carol Midgley The Times (UK) Mar 17
This was nevertheless a great drama of misdirection. Go to Full Review
James Croot The Post NZ May 5
An absorbing crime drama, a compelling battle of wills, Gone is well worth seeking out. Go to Full Review
Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk Mar 23
4/5
The mystery (scripted by George Kay) will unravel itself in due course, but Gone keeps its grip on your attention with its interplay of character and situation as much as with the mere mechanics of the police investigation. Go to Full Review
Charlotte Ivers Sunday Times (UK) Mar 17
Pleasingly, Gone is a good example of the form. Go to Full Review

Ramina V @Ramram 1d Way too long, they drag it out for no reason. It takes the main charactet two episodes just to say he didn’t do it .. what the hell writing is that? Not worth the watch. It could have been 3-4 episodes max. See more Danny L @Afshin11 4d As an American TV watcher, I must say British drama at first seems too complex and hard to follow. Since we seem to be used to our TV shows, which seems to be made for people to watch while scrolling on their phone. You do that with these kind of show and you'll never catch up. Had to say that, so if you do watch the show, you pay attention to it. And if you, you are hooked. The cast is amazing, and bring their characters to life. And the plot is one that can go in so many directions, and you never know, unless you keep watching. Now that I have gone through a few of similar shows, I am searching for more. But as for this show, you would love it, IF you pay attention. Put down your phone. It's worth it. See more A R @Roads.cx Aug 9 Way too long; should be three episodes at best. Writer suspends logic and reality by skipping over so many logical questions leaving you wading through muddy plot twists in order to drag out this mini series into six episodes. If you're unable to get out of bed for a few days then this might be a good watch Acting, photography, editing and general composition are good. See more Beverley A @RT678905342871 Aug 8 Good cast and enjoyable. See more Lane M @RT31121284 Aug 8 Enjoyed this series, good acting See more Michael W @RT50977381 Jul 31 My wife and I binge-watched all six episodes and absolutely loved Season 1. The casting was excellent across the board, and the performances kept us hooked from the first episode to the last. Our only small gripe is the ending, which felt a little rushed and caught us off guard — we'd have loved a bit more room for it to breathe. That aside, it's a gripping, well-cast season that's easy to recommend, and we're eager to see where the story goes next. See more Read all reviews
