After a stitched-together corpse is found, it is determined that children have been going missing.
Featuring a Sean Bean who is restrained from acting, this plodding may as well-be documentary features people with an English accent doing stuff and caring about things. It is neither captivating nor even interesting.

Inspired by Frankenstein – (1818 book), by Mary Shelley

So far this is good, but I don’t like that this is a staggered storyline, with no episodic entertainment.

Spoiler
- 2:30 — I guess maybe the titles are making more sense now.. but no, not really.
- 20:45 — Yes, the surgeons always say that. The funny thing is, that it’s true. And unlike anything religion has to offer, they have direct tangible evidence instead of tangential claims.
- 21:20 — So it’s a power play by the rational and wealthy in power to crush the quacks. While the obsolescence of quackery would be beneficial, forcing it wouldn’t be. The people need their sparkly things.

45:30 — The song is Oranges and Lemons, a traditional English nursery rhyme.
Overall I’m finding this too slow and boring to continue.
