That unbelievable situation when your 13-year-old son gets arrested for murdering a schoolmate. This is the story of Adolescence; Ashley Walters, Stephen Graham, Owen Cooper and Faye Marsay’s latest crime/drama mini-series.

Undoubtedly, one of the worst nightmares for all parents doing their best to raise a ‘good child’. I’m excited to see the young actor playing Graham’s son do an incredible job. I have no doubt that Walters and Graham will also be be fantastic.

To think that acting found Graham by accident when he accompanied a friend to an audition for a Guy Richie movie. When the friend finished auditioning, Graham was invited to audition. He told them he wasn’t an actor. But, eventually, they convinced him to try. Guess who got offered the part? When Stephen protested because he didn’t want to take a job from his friend, Ritchie’s response was something to the effect of ‘That’s not my problem’. Classic.

Are you curious about this tragic and seemingly well-titled drama?

Christine Tremarco, Amelie Pease, Noah Mason, Erin Doherty, Jo Hartley, Mark Stanley and Claudius Peters also star.
