This is one that many people have probably missed due to it`s very odd screening time of 9.30 pm on Saturday night on BBC1.

Waiting For The Out.

It`s truly outstanding and Josh Finnan in the lead is surely one of our brightest young acting talents( the smackhead Marco -The Responder / Gerry Adams - Say Nothing ).

A young idealistic Philosophy teacher, gets a job teaching Philosophy to bored inmates in a Cat B prison.

However his life is slowly being ruined by his crippling OCD and the baggage he`s carrying from his abusive father as a child.

The series follows him, as his life starts to slowly fall apart.

I really can`t over estimate how good this, both the writing, the cast and in particular the performance of Finnan, who reminds me very much of Jack O`Connell when he first emerged.

It`s just about to finish but you can get it on Iplayer.

Found it a frustrating watch. Started strong but then just didn't really go anywhere.

Clearly I'm in the minority as its got rave reviews everywhere.

Everything is subjective mate, which is why we all enjoy different things.

Josh Finnan is a big talent though.
