Yes, it's 10 episodes in total!

I read the book several years ago and found it very disturbing. I can't remember the end but I do recall feeling pretty miserable after reading it.

I have to say that I thought the TV adaptation was good - the acting superb - though, with the misery being piled on, I'm not sure I will last out the whole series.

I watched ten minutes but didn't like it

Once again, did anyone notice the poor sound quality.

Disturbing but so close to the truth it's scary!

Did anyone else watch this last night.
I am intrigued to see where it goes.

Some of the scenes were quite disturbing I thought.

I often wonder about the people who write these sort of stories and how their brains work to come up with such ideas.
