There was lots going on in the opening episode and a stand out performance from Erin Doherty as Becky (also brilliant in The Crown as Princess Anne). The show looks at some of the issues around social media from the perspective both of the influencers and the followers. Becky is a follower who reinvents herself as an influencer - what could possibly go wrong? I enjoyed it, the production values were good, it was well-written and had a nice cast. The plot had a few improbabilities, e.g. How she effortlessly upgraded herself to a convincing globe trotting middle-class millennial overnight - without a single hiccup. It was also a bit slow after the opener. Probably more BBC3 than BBC1. I guessed the ending, but I think this one is more about enjoying the ride than waiting for a big reveal. The story was stretched at six episodes and would have been better told in three or four.
