The Missing returned to television screens on Wednesday night to the delight of fans of the 2014 British-American drama.

With a cast including the Walking Dead’s David Morrissey, viewers were excited to see thriller series and – in particular French investigator Julien Baptiste (Tcheky Karyo) – back on TV .

However using a number of different timelines after only a few minutes into the first episode confused lots of fans.

#TheMissing is finally back and is already confusing 😂

Even the BBC had to intervene to help a few viewers keep track.

Need a bit of help? Keep an eye on Julien’s beard and the length of @Misskeeleyhawes' hair. #TheMissing
