The Gathering is over, meaning the end is near…
3.5million tuned in for the penultimate instalment of Miracle Day, The Gathering, on BBC1 last night, a 14.7% share.
Jack and Gwen made a bargain with the devil himself in the episode, written by John Fay, which made for a “compelling viewing” according to the Telegraph. The Independent were also impressed, saying it felt like the series “had been given a shot of adrenaline”. Meanwhile, over at SFX, the “gratifying” episode has been given 3/5, however they pose the question: “Anyone else thinking too little too late?”

I don’t think it’s too little too late. It’s doing what you expect a 10-chapter story to do – it’s building up to a climax. Do those reviewers have any concept of narrative structure? This wasn’t a collection of 10 unrelated episodes, this was a 10-hour single story (the equivalent of a 20-episode old-school Doctor Who story, incidentally).
