BBC’s Wolf: viewers make same complaint over ‘annoying’ detail in new thriller

BBC One’s new drama, Wolf, made its debut earlier this week and while viewers have been loving the addictive series, some have picked up on an “annoying” detail. 

At the end of each episode, a preview clip is played which teases what’s to come in the next instalment. Taking to X, formally known as Twitter, viewers complained that the preview spoils the next episode. 

WATCH: Are you enjoying the BBC’s new drama, Wolf?

One person wrote: “The long preview at the end is annoying #wolf,” while another added: “No preview of next week, gutted! Said no one ever! #Wolf.”

A third viewer commented: “Mo Hayder is my absolute favourite crime writer, so I was very excited to see the first episode of the BBC’s adaptation of #Wolf. So far, so good, but we definitely did not need the preview of the next episode right after that cliffhanger! #giveitachance,” while another added: “The BBC spoiling the next episode of Wolf at the end of the previous one is a baffling decision. #bbcwolf.”

However, not all viewers were bothered by the preview clips and have also taken to social media to praise the gripping drama. One person wrote: “Wow #Wolf Best thing I’ve seen in ages on @BBCOne. Gripping edge-of-the-seat stuff and that’s just episode one,” while another commented: “Omg this is dark! But gripping! #wolf.”

What is Wolf about? 

For those unfamiliar with the new drama, Wolf is a horror-thriller series which is based on the Jack Caffery novels by Mo Hayder. The story follows young detective Jack Caffery, who becomes obsessed with the neighbour he believes murdered his ten-year-old brother in the 90s. The synopsis asks: “Jack finds himself trying to right the wrongs of others – but at what cost?”

In a parallel storyline set in Wales, the Anchor-Ferrers family find themselves the victims of a psychopath’s twisted games.

“When the two narratives collide, it is a thrilling, nail-biting and deeply disturbing race against time,” the synopsis teases.
