This show sounds brilliant. Starts tonight at 8.30pm, with the second episode at 10pm.
RadioTimes review: " This new US import, Invasion, owes something to Lost in that lots of cardboard characters face adversity after a disaster: in this case, a hurricane that hits Florida. Similarly, there's a hunky leading man who takes off his shirt occasionally for a gratuitous flash of his torso (in this case, he's a park ranger), and there's a strong suggestion of the supernatural. There's even a portly bearded slacker who sees what others don't. But for all its crassness, Invasion is a ripping yarn. (Its first two episodes are being shown around tonight's Celebrity Big Brother.) The simulation of the hurricane is highly effective and there's a welcome dash of eeriness when it becomes clear that the hurricane has affected some members of the community in very sinister ways... "
Fans of Lost and anything Sci-Fi should love this show, anyway.
