Starmer calls on Netflix drama Adolescence to be shown in schools

The prime minister says the powerful new Netflix drama Adolescence should be shown in schools as a warning to young boys of the dangers of social media and toxic masculinity.

The show, starring Stephen Graham and Owen Cooper, depicts the arrest of a teenager after the murder of a young schoolgirl.

Every episode is recorded in one continuous shot, heightening the realism and intensity of the four-part series.

Campaigners say the series highlights the dangers of social media and how young boys can be influenced by what they see online.
