    Out of Time: 3. What Kind of Coward Are You?

    Following a catastrophic attempt to free the Epsilon from the ice and the withdrawal of support from the Polaris, Fred embarks on a perilous solo journey to seek help. With Fred away, convinced that the answer lies within the storm itself, Maria pursues a dangerous journey of her own. When a stranded Arctic research vessel transmits a call for help, the ship that comes to the rescue is not what they expected. Trapped together in a frozen limbo, two crews separated by a century must survive starvation, the elements, and paranoia to get home. A chilling five-part supernatural thriller that blends claustrophobic survivalism, cosmic sci-fi and environmental geopolitics, set in one of the most hostile places on Earth - the Arctic tundra. Written by the writers of the award-winning drama podcast 'Up In Smoke', Cambria Bailey-Jones and Guy Larsen.
