On c4 tonight at 9 - thriller/drama about 'a teenager who is on the verge of acting out psychopathic desires' I've seen it advertised and am due something new to watch.
Anyone going to be watching with me?

I'll give it a go. Not sure it's going to be my thing- I don't usually subscribe to the 'born evil' school of thought.

Me either, James, I think I'll either like or REALLY hate it. But I need something to watch on Thursdays! I'll meet you back here at 10!

I'm watching! Sometimes these threads are better than the actual programme!

JamesDelaneysHat · 20/04/2017 21:02

Argh I'm going to have to record it as stupid dh is watching something else! Will report back afterwards!

MichaelSheensNextDW · 20/04/2017 21:11

I'm watching! Great cast.

Arcadia · 20/04/2017 21:19

Good so far.

I'm watching...

Arcadia · 20/04/2017 21:30

Creepy thing with the hair

JamesDelaneysHat · 20/04/2017 21:39

I'm watching now. I wonder where it's going to go with the girl. Them forming some kind of murderous partnership presumably?

JamesDelaneysHat · 20/04/2017 21:42

Wow apparently the boy playing Sam's friend that he rescued from the bully on the bus is Nick Cave's son! He does look like him a lot.

TheSecondOfHerName · 20/04/2017 21:42

Jenny only looks 10-15 years older than Sam. Did she have him in her early teens?

thenightsky · 20/04/2017 21:42

Enjoying so far.

Flambola · 20/04/2017 22:01

I enjoyed it. The kid who plays Sam is very good, very creepy.

TheSecondOfHerName I think so - I think the dad is a murderer/rapist but we'll see next week

Not sure how I feel about it; the last scene made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. As did all of the scenes with the 'best friend'.

Gripping though, I'll be watching next week for sure. Great cast

I loved it! It was very 'Chanel 4' just googled Earl Cave and his twin brother died a couple of years ago, I reckon we will be seeing more of him over the years, I liked him.

JamesDelaneysHat · 20/04/2017 22:07

Yes it was uncomfortable and disturbing to watch a lot of the time! I felt quite anxious (probably just me though!) waiting for him to kill someone. I feel like the nurse and the friend are both going to be offed.

Arcadia · 20/04/2017 22:10

Does anyone know where this is set?

Arcadia · 20/04/2017 22:12

Ah just found out - filmed in Cardiff. Not sure where that lovely beach cafe was then where the mum met the liaison officer - Barry island?!

user1486915549 · 20/04/2017 22:19

It made me feel very uncomfortable.
Don't think I will watch it again. Creepy !

NotJanine · 20/04/2017 22:46

Yep I'm sure that beach was Barry. Obviously wasn't meant to be Wales though from the accents.

Ellieboolou27 · 20/04/2017 22:55

Missed the first half, but from what I watched I really enjoyed it, I like dark and uncomfortable though, good cast, what did the dad do to end up in prison?

SuburbanRhonda · 20/04/2017 22:57

I'm still buzzing that they used my favourite song of all time at the end Smile

OrlandoTheCat · 20/04/2017 23:05

what kind of hospital allows visitors to roam around the wards???

OrlandoTheCat · 20/04/2017 23:05

Suburban whats the song?

PointlessUsername · 20/04/2017 23:07

So far, so good.
