	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Carol Midgley The Times	"[The first 45 minutes] lacked pace and sufficient intrigue and presented a procession of unlikeable character (...) It all woke up in the last 15 minutes (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Jasper Rees Telegraph	"The dialogue has the flavour of a graphic novel that happens to be peopled by fine actors adept at applying flesh and blood. So it’s worth sticking with (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Ed Power The Independent	"The Williams have woven a brilliantly tangled web, helped in no small part by Karyo’s quietly arresting central turn (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Rebecca Nicholson The Guardian	"[The first episode] is an hour of big, actorly performances (...) There is a steady familiarity to it all, and one of the big reveals seems a little easy and also signposted from a mile away (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Louisa Mellor Den of Geek	"The lack of energy could be down to the repetitive script (...) 'Baptiste' feels disappointingly retro. Its barely conscious lead has been saddled with soporific dialogue."	NEG
