Another big drama from Channel 4.
Sleepin_Dragon8 February 2023
For Public schoolboy Archie, the lines blur between what is and isn't consent, when he takes advantage of Natalie, who's drunk to the point of incapacity.

Definitely a powerful and thought provoking drama, sure it's well made and well acted, but beyond that it hides a powerful message, and hopefully one that people could learn from.

What's most chilling perhaps is the way that Archie is oblivious as to what he's done, the way in which he thinks what has happened is normal, and perhaps the basis for some sort of relationship.

This highlights the need for education, not just sex education, but social skills, all teens need to understand what consent is, I truly think this drama should be shown to teens to understand how quickly things can go wrong.

Tom Victor and Lashay Anderson were both very good I thought, hopefully we'll get to see more of these two in years to come.

Ellen Rhys (Please, please get back to Mallorca) and Richard Harrington were both very good, believable characters.

Worth seeing.

8/10.
