Reviews
In a review of Prophecy, the critic David Howe praised the serial as "...the tale of eerie coincidence and death rattled along at a tremendous pace, leaving the viewer breathless. At the end of it, I found myself wondering whether I had just watched a 90 minute film, rather than a 50 minute drama, such was the amount of characterisation and plot that Gallagher managed to cram in." Howe criticized the relationship between the widowed aristocrat Oliver Halkin (Nigel Havers) and Fransesca "Fanny" Monsanto (Sophie Ward) under the grounds that Ward was young to be Havers's daughter and argued that it was implausible that the young people who attended the seance did not age over the course of the five years afterwards.
