I agree with the only other reviewer for this episode who came here before I did. Even though the story has a very creepy vibe to it, there seems to be something lacking as if the writers didn't know what they wanted to do or where they wanted to go. Seeking a fresh start after Louise Knight (Serena Gordon) loses her baby named Toby in an auto accident, she and her husband move into a new home and almost immediately she becomes aware of paranormal occurrences. The infant's crib swings by itself and a baby's crying is heard throughout the house. Louise's guilt complex leads her to imagining a phantom baby growing in her stomach, but that turns out to me a massive blood sac when she goes into labor. But then, she gets pregnant for real, and simulates breastfeeding an imaginary baby, all to her husband's chagrin. I'm unclear as to why the writers took this approach by way of the fake pregnancy, because all it did was pad out the story to it's one hour screen time. As if searching for a way to conclude the story, Louise once again gets in her car, and has a fatal accident involving a Toby Tyler delivery truck. Her bereft husband Ray (Martin Clunes), who had all he could handle with Louise's prior imaginings, is left to ponder a toy train running by itself and the swinging cradle in what would have been the new baby's bedroom. It all felt to me like a story that needed a thorough reworking to make it a real Chiller.
