These are the intriguing questions posed by Sky's new action thriller The Lazarus Project, as Archie (Vigil's Anjli Mohindra) recruits George (I May Destroy You's Paapa Essiedu) into a covert organisation run by Wes (The Other One star Caroline Quentin) that can 'reset' time in the event of an apocalypse.

But when the Lazarus Project won't undo a tragic event that directly affects George, he begins to question its moral code.
