This isn't just. Good series it's bloody brilliant I don't really watch many dramas on bbc but I was going through all my apps looking for something new to watch and found this it has everything romance, drama, thrill and inclusivity without running it down your throat and shows the different versions of black teens watched all episodes in two days because it has me hooked wish it was 10 episodes in total but they left room for a new season hopefully and the actors are very talented individuals. Honestly well done bbc three.
10s a cross the board also woukd love to know more about each character.

I loveed, the fact that they did not take long to release the 2nd season or outright cancel the show like other TV shows! I love how they include LGBTQ characters, so seamlessly. I resonate with Omar so well. I love how the show, shows us the point of view of different characters that come from the same background: "a bad neighbourhood". And shows us how different they all can still be and how differently they react to the same situations. A Tv show like this: centered in black characters and is realistic, i have rarely seen. Hope on seeing more projects like these in the future! Loving season 2 so far cannot wait to see more.
This could have been an interesting show. There are many good actors, and it had potential to develop into something fun. But I don't think the writers knew what they were doing with it.
The story just rambles from one character to another. There are five interesting characters, and they each have their own issues, but none of them get developed very deeply. We just keep jumping around to these unconnected storylines that are fairly unbelievable.
We are supposed to think these characters know each other and are good friends, but we don't have any background to explain that, and they don't really seem to have anything in common other than that they attended the same community center classes.
And then the story seems to follow some of the characters from the school for a while, but then it jumps back to the main characters. Nobody really gets the full story development. Nothing significant really happens.
Waste of talent and time.

Oh so far so good. I'm loving this hope the next season comes out soon ASAP. At first I didn't think I was going to like this show but so far I am loving it. We need more shows like this. Great answers with excellent talent. The show definitely needs more advertisement. I love that everyone is coming together. I love that everyone is coming together in this series creating more diversity and coming together. They are beginning to see that everyone is just the same as the next person trying to be successful while being under the spotlight. Despite the wrongdoings of good versus bad guy in this.
Pretty good series - I'm only 3 episodes in but it sucked me in from the very first episode. It's really absorbing and does a good job of mixing serious social and on point racial commentary with laugh out loud comedy. The characters show a lot of heat and are likable, well developed and unpredictable.
It's hard to guess what direction people are going to go in because the characters are so layered with no one appearing one dimensional. It's been a long time since I've seen something so good like this on British TV and it's nice to have something other than a political or police drama to watch and get sucked into.
It's also nice to know that slang hasn't changed too much and the social media girls are particularly on point.
