HBO and Sky co-produce a haunting eight episode series in which a 38-year-old chef who absolutely does not want a baby gets stuck with England’s creepiest infant.

It’s bad enough when all of Natasha’s friends start popping out babies—but when an infant falls into her life and latches on, the 38-year-old chef’s world turns into an actual horror show, a horror comedy from Siân Robins-Grace and Lucy Gaymer that premieres Sunday on HBO Max, seems at first like a biting critique of the absurd expectations some societies place on women and mothers.

The tiny boy and his yellow knit booties might be so cute as to merit an Anne Geddes portrait, but there’s something very wrong with this baby. It’s not until a few episodes in, however, that the series really reveals its hand. There is no big “twist,” but there is a major reveal—one that, given sooner, could imbue earlier episodes with the spark they occasionally lack. Although the first six of’s eight half-hour episodes ultimately deliver on what one might expect from a killer-baby romp things take a while to heat up.
