The chemistry of this production shows how dreary and disappointing it can become with the pace being slow and amounting to hardly anything. The overdone of colour effect at most parts adds to the dreariness, and puts you off even to a 3 episode margin. The actors try to fit in their shoes the best they can but Spall's character can hardly earn respect for his existence. The only couple of good notes is some visual interests and wide-scenery atmosphere works only for particularly a few seconds. The drama which it centres on puts you off the hopeful interest of seeing a pure adaptation of Wells' work and fails to be entertaining.
