THE NEVERS

Sky Atlantic, 10.10pm

-

This supernatur­al Victorian thriller starts with a strange eclipse, which leaves many people with some abnormal abilities – from the wondrous to the disturbing.

Now it’s three years later and these ‘touched’ people belong to a new underclass where they are stigmatise­d and feared.

Fortunatel­y, in true superheros­tyle, a mysterious duo (pictured) – quick-fisted widow Amalia True (Lara Donnelly) and brilliant inventor Penance Adair (Ann Skelly) – take it upon themselves to protect these gifted women.

Meanwhile, masked riders are hunting the ‘touched’ and there’s a serial killer on the loose. Watch out for star turns from James Norton, Tom Riley and Olivia Williams.
