SPOILER ALERT!
We are taken to a parallel universe where Oxford University in England is flooded densely. The show's lead character Lord Asriel (James McAvoy) carries a newborn baby (Lyra) on his head peculiarly like Vasudeva carried the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천infant Lord Krishna in the epic Mahabharata. He hands over the baby to Dr Carne - The Master of the University (Clarke Peters), asking him to guard the child who was destined for greatness, in keeping with the prophecy. 슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Twelve years down the line, we see Lyra Belacqua (Dafne Keen) running down the university campus with her best friend슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Pantalaimon (Kit Connor).
The adjacent narrative shows Lord Asriel (McAvoy) along with his daemon, a female Snow Leopard voiced by Helen McCrory who plays Aunt Polly in BBC's hit show Peaky Blinders. Asriel is keen on exploring the Northern Lights in Antarctica and discovers a series of photos to슬롯 머신 사이트 추천prove his theory슬롯 머신 사이트 추천of a parallel universe. He returns to Jordan college where Lyra is excited and happy to meet her uncle after a long time. Her only wish is to explore things up north.
슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Asriel proves his theory of parallel universes in front of the Jordan College jury of professors and슬롯 머신 사이트 추천arranges for funds for further research.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천But슬롯 머신 사이트 추천he is not taking Lyra along with him at any cost. A sobbing Lyra runs behind her uncle who wants her to stay away from the North. However, Master슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Dr Carne hatches a plan to have scholar Marisa Coulter (Ruth Wilson)슬롯 머신 사이트 추천take Lyra to the north.
The catch which makes Episode 1 so engrossing is the myth of Gobblers coming true. A mysterious entity, Gobblers have foxes as their daemons. They kidnap children and take them to London. Lyra's best friend Pan is kidnapped by the end of the show. And as a true concerned friend, she decides to go with Marisa on the quest to rescue the kidnapped children from the Gobblers.
This flawless BBC show draws all our attention to Pullman's fascinating concept, which is so well portrayed in this series. A fictional England of Philip Pullman is a visual spectacle and after the end of the first episode, we are eagerly waiting for the other episode to drop. The film adaptation of Pullman's creation was Disney's 2007 film The Golden Compass, which슬롯 머신 사이트 추천was massively criticised for not being true to the book. However, this BBC series has been an exact interpretation of Philip Pullman's Northern Lights as attested by many bookworms.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Viewers have received the series warmly, thanks to its grand scale, exceptional VFX, fascinating settings and well-written characters.
