I'll be out Sunday night, so will probably be recording it. 

 

I liked Ant Middleton in "Mutiny", but I don't think this will have the same "narrative" appeal of that show. "Escape" looks more like a cross between "The Island" and "Scrapheap Challenge". 

(Mind you: the setup for the opening show bears more than a passing resemblance to the plot of the cult classic "The Flight of the Phoenix"...   )

I think you're right about that, Eugene. 

I'll still give it a go.
