Turns out, each of the 3 stories (Geralt/Yen/Ciri) is told in a different timeline, but they don't make that clear. I was under the impression they were happening concurrently, but they're not.
Yeah, it took me till about Ep4 before that really, obviously clicked and it annoyed the piss out of me as I was trying to work out whether there were strong interconnections between the stories.
I'll finish it off tonight (perhaps they'll tie it all up, perhaps they'll just be clear about the timeline delineations) but despite having basically no knowledge of The Witcher, never having played the games, read the books etc, I'm enjoying it in a sort of low key way. I'm looking forward to getting into watching it again, certainly. Even if it ends disappointingly, it feels like the story and universe have potential.
Updated opinions later after a bottle of wine and a bag of chips.
