Posts included: ‘Once again, mᴀssive spoiler. No need to watch Fear now. #Gogglebox;’
‘For anyone who hasn’t seen the ending of Fear yet or wanted to start it, C4 and Gogglebox would just like to say: Up yours. #Gogglebox;’
‘Well, there’s no point in anyone watching #Fear now, is there? Thanks, #Gogglebox.’
The new show follows a young family who move into a huge house in Glasgow, where everything initially seems perfect.
Husband Martyn (Martin) is a high-flying architect with an ego to match. He is deeply in love with his scientist wife, Rebecca (Anjli), and together they adore their new home, as do their children.
Their situation appears even better when they meet their downstairs neighbor, Jan, who always shows up at exactly the right time, with exactly what they need, and always knows exactly what to say.
But something feels off. The family begins to sense something strange, and as they unravel the truth, the thriller slowly reveals its unsettling mystery.
The story primarily explores Martyn’s ego, using the eerie happenings in the house to expose his flaws. It also examines how easily truth can be distorted in the digital age and how stories can be seen from only one perspective.
