On today’s episode, our promo host Dom Lenoir sits down with the team behind Netflix’s latest hit, Adolescence – a groundbreaking mini-series where every episode is shot in a single take. It’s an incredible achievement from the entire cast and crew, and we couldn’t wait to find out how they pulled it off. Joining us for this fascinating conversation are:
Stephen Graham & Erin Doherty (actors)

Together, they dive into:
- How Stephen, Jack, and Philip developed the concept
- The process of writing a one-take script
- The challenges and techniques behind filming without cuts
- The current state of drama in film and TV
- And so much more!
