One of the best things on TV this year. Same cast and director as the film, and just as class. Right from the first episode it forces you to put down your phone and really watch. An astounding central performance from Stephen Graham, because he’s incapable of doing otherwise. Particularly enjoy watching for those little moments that may turn bad, a pan being on too long etc. It is different to The Bear: uses interpersonal-comment-as-you-pass-with-a-hot-plate humour rather than, for instance, having to wrestle a big inflatable hot dog into a small car. Was initially worried it had too much dazzle and not enough life but once it drops the “we’ve only got one camera” shtick it quickly finds rhythm - by the end of Ep 2 I was so invested I (a very miserable and hard-to-move person) almost cried at one of the story twists. Nailbiting stuff. You really can’t look away
