There were some moments, particularly during the opening episodes of 007: Road to a Million, when I didn’t think I was going to like the series.

Like the James Bond movies that this spinoff game show draws its inspiration from, there's an immediate sense of adventure and mystery. The problem is — also like some Bond movies — the whole think feels clunky. There are nine pairs of contestants, but we only meet a few of them at first. The rules aren't clear. The show is narrated Succession's Brian Cox, but his role in the whole thing is confusing. Is he an M figure, a villain, or neither?
