This week's TV: What Paul Mescal did next
I’m going to organise a collection for Paul Mescal. It was distressing to see the star dragged into a promo for a Rolling Stones video this week — yes these are hard times for people in acting, but he’s better than propping up some Dad Rock types that are basically a tribute act to themselves. So let’s see if we can find some money that will let him focus on the acting.
Like he did on the a four-parter which ran on Channel 5 this week. (It will be on Virgin Media in Ireland soon.) This is a spooky thriller set in Donegal, written by creator Lisa McGee along with her husband, Tobias Beer. Lisa obviously likes a a bit of danger in her life, writing a show with her husband, because sometimes when I’m writing solo, I feel like divorcing myself.
