The audience gets their first glimpse of the Chimera. Part monkey and part child.

He finds a natural affinity with the two kids of the farmer. It is not clear if the kids are aware that their parents have been murdered.

In the meantime Peter Carson is using his journalistic ties to find out what happened in the Jenner clinic.

Carson finds out about some of the cutting edge research they were involved in.

His journalistic friends try to evade the security services sent by Hennessey. They manage to get some stuff over to Carson but one of them has a big fall.

The policeman Schaffer is making his own investigations as to what happened in the Institute. His main suspect his Carson. In Forester he gets to find out more about the clinic.

Forester is skulking around as he wants to find out who killed his wife and wants his own revenge.

By the end of the the third episode. Chimera is like a hybrid of two BBC thrillers from the 1980s. First Born and Edge of Darkness.

However there is no going away from the sedate cumbersome pace.

John Lynch is just too bland as the lead. It is only as he got older he managed to break out as an actor.
