"Adolescence" is brilliantly made television. For one thing each episode is filmed in one camera shot which means that if any actor makes an error, the entire episode must start over. No cuts to speak of which meant some episodes took 13 tries.
The acting is stellar as is the dialogue which moves along briskly. The young Jamie Miller who is accused of murdering a fellow classmate, his family and the investigators do an amazing job at keeping us spellbound.
As it was a limited series, I absorbed it almost in one go which is rare for me. This is quality intelligent television at its finest; devoid of melodrama or Hollywood ploys which would telegraph anything in advance.
On Netflix and highly recommended.
