Christopher Walken, Darren Boyd, Stephen Merchant, Clare Perkins, Eleanor Tomlinson, Gamba Cole, and Rhianne Barreto in The Outlaws (2021)
A contemporary British comedy thriller about a disparate group of lawbreakers thrown together to complete a Community Service sentence. Seven strangers from different walks of life - people who would never normally interact - are forced to work together to renovate a derelict community center. They resent the menial physical labour and they resent each other. But when one of their number gets dragged into a dangerous world of organized crime, they unite in ways none of them thought possible.

    • Trivia
      Writer Stephen Merchant has stated the idea for the show came to him as his mother used to do work overseeing community service, and thought about how having people from different walks of life placed into the same situation would make an interesting plot line.

    Fresh British comedy ... enjoyable
    A novel comedy from Stephen Merchant in which a group of seven very different strangers complete community service together in Bristol.

    It's not a pure comedy, it's a mix of comedy and drama. However, it has a good plot with some excellent characters. Christopher Walken is brilliant, Stephen Merchant is very funny, and the rest of the cast do a good job particularly Jessica Gunning and Rhianne Barreto.

    A fresh British comedy that is definitely worth a watch.
