Another must-watch Stephen Graham crime drama is trending again on Netflix after Adolescence’s success

Another must-watch Stephen Graham drama has trended on Netflix after Adolescence‘s success.

The latter drama has become a huge critical and ratings hit since its premiere earlier this month, recently making history as the first streaming show to top the UK weekly TV ratings.

Graham’s 2022 crime series The Walk-In has now entered the Netflix UK Top 10 after being added to the streamer a few months ago.

The show, which originally aired on ITV, sees the actor play Matthew Collins, a former fascist organisation member-turned-informant who worked to bring down Britain’s far right.

The Jeff Pope series also stars Endeavour‘s Shvorne Marks, Boiling Point‘s Jason Flemyng, The Bay‘s Leanne Best, Game of Thrones‘ Dean-Charles Chapman and This Is Going to Hurt‘s Andrew Ellis.

The real-life Collins previously revealed how the show was given fictionalised content and a different name for the safety of the production team, with no publicity beforehand.

“The security was extremely tight, there were even discussions about whether to run a full list of credits naming everyone involved,” he told the Guardian in 2022.

Adolescence follows the story of a 13-year-old boy who is accused of murdering a girl at school, and the show counts Graham as a co-creator alongside starring.

The series is also unique in that each episode is filmed in one take, something co-creator Jack Thorne said “forces the audience into complexity”.

In a five-star review of the series, Digital Spy said: “The very best drama has the power to irrevocably move you and spark conversation, and Adolescence does both.”
