THE WAY. MON BBC 9pm. Tv pace. NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

New drama for 3weeks on a Monday night

got a good cast imo

The official synopsis for the drama says that it "tells the story of an ordinary family caught up in an extraordinary chain of events that ripple out from their home town".

The synopsis continues: "Ambitious, powerful and surprising, The Way taps into the social and political chaos of today’s world by imagining a civil uprising which begins in a small industrial town.

"Fleeing unrest, The Driscolls are forced to escape the country they’ve always called home and the certainties of their old lives.

Will they be overwhelmed by their memories of the past, or will they lay their ghosts to rest and take the risk of an unknown future?

"The Way is an emotional and darkly humorous story about what it means to be faced with impossible choices."

The Way features an absolutely stacked cast, led by Steffan Rhodri (Gavin & Stacey (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/gavin-stacey-star-mathew-horne-cliffhanger-exclusive-newsupdate/)), Mali Harries (The Archers (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/the-archers-rob-titchener-dies-newsupdate/)), Sophie Melville (The Pact (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/pact-season-3-release-date/)) and Callum Scott Howells (It's a Sin (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/sci-fi/nathaniel-curtis-doctor-who-newsupdate/)).

Looks gritty.

Ouch

I was going to post exactly this!

Thanks this looks good!

Oh noooo what to choose?! I think I'll probably watch breathtaking tonight.

I've got a rare Tuesday night off my course tomorrow so I can do some catching up!

enjoyed that
good old dave coaches!

Absolute pile o'shite. Boringly predictable. Won't bother watching another minute. 😌

Half-way through ep #1, and I reckon, if not better, certainly more ambitious. My first thought was, this is a bit poncey for the Valleys! 😃

It was a doctor who/ triffids/ 80s miners strike documentary/ politics broadcast with btec shaky ‘surveillance’ camerawork. Coherent it was not. It had all the right ingredients but was so overcooked.

Thank you @Blondeshavemorefun
I've recorded it.

I just thought to myself, I'll bet the Guardian love this, and sure enough, they do! Nowhere near as clever as it thought it was.

I had high hopes for this, but after one episode, I'm really not sure. It seems a bit "try hard". "Overcooked" sums it up nicely.
Will give it another go though.

Really boring. Switched off after 20 minutes.
