Compulsion (2022– )
7/10
The kindness of strangers?
13 May 2022
Having survived a train accident, paramedic Jenny suffers a panic attack on a train, fellow passenger Sasha comes to her aid, the pair strike up a friendship.

Ok, so I'd be lying if I said it didn't have its issues, there are faults, plot holes and some absurd moments, but it is TV, and it deals with an incredibly serious issue, and features some terrific acting.

Leanne Best and Anna Chancellor are both first rate from start to finish, they share some great scenes.

It's very nicely filmed, and looked well produced, unlike recent C5 dramas, it was filmed in The UK, looks like Liverpool.

Nice to see gambling addiction featured in a TV series, it's still a taboo subject, good to see it get some attention.

One of the best dramas to come from Channel 5, Streets ahead of the last few offerings, I really did enjoy it.

7/10.
