Quite apart from shoehorning every single form of social injustice and political commentary into every episode this particular chapter really takes the cake. Gaz telling a schizophrenic patient to cut down slowly on his antipsychotic medication just so that he, Gaz, can capitalise on the guy's artistic talent to 'become the next Banksy'. I think anyone can guess where that particular trope went? I'm just glad that the result wasn't a tragedy.
I don't think that having a co-writer in Alice 'Chumbawumba' Nutter has really elevated Simon Beaufoy's scripts in this frankly watchable but also deeply irritating reboot.
