Watched a new BBC drama yesterday. It’s called Boat Story and is a VERY dark comedy/crime tale about two dog walking strangers finding a wrecked fishing boat on the beach full of cocaine.
Here’s a review from the Guardian.
Definitely not for younger viewers. Found it on the High Seas.
I've kinda gone off dramas but maybe a comedy drama might be up my alley. The review certainly raves about it. Is it more comedy or more drama?
That’s a difficult question given I don’t know what you might expect in a comedy drama. The comedy is VERY dark, the humour is from the clever use of dialog, plus over-the-top violence that really would normally only ever be shown in horror movies, but in there fits perfectly to the amazingly interlinked story line.
I’d suggest you give it a look if you can, then decide. I couldn’t guess the outcome until a few minutes from the end of the series.
I feel It’s the best thing I’ve seen in either a tv series or movies for a very long while
Ok I'll do it. I've been meaning to set up a self-hosted sonarr/radarr/etc setup's so this will be an excuse.
