Some viewers complained about the far-fetched plot
Other viewers were left confused by the first instalment. One person tweeted: "Another confusing drama, flashbacks where we haven't a clue what's going on, half sentences that leave the viewer confused. Can't be bothered waiting to find out what happened in the past to understand what's happening now," while another simply wrote: "Anyone struggling with this? I'm so confused."
However, viewers who managed to binge-watch the entire series on Sunday night encouraged others to stick with the drama. One person wrote: "#TheControlRoom was SO good! Kept me on the edge of my seat for three hours straight and did not let go. Fantastic performance by Iain De Caestecker and thrilling twists and turns."
Many viewers praised the final episode
Another fan commented: "Just finished watching all episodes of #TheControlRoom on the iPlayer and it was SO good. Have seen a lot of tweets slating the first episode but stick with it, it's definitely worth it," while another praised the final episode, adding: "Just finished all three episodes of #TheControlRoom. Tense, stressful, twisty, and WOW that last episode. The whole cast was great. Iain De Caestecker knocked it out of the park just as I knew he would."
