Top Boy can be bleak and violent, with dialogue so naturalistic that it verges on the impenetrable, but in telling stories that rarely get heard, it asks us to think differently about the city we live in. Drake has done British viewers a favour. We can thank him later.

A beautifully paced and powerful return. Bennett’s tight, compassionate scripts touch on everything from the impact of Brexit to the increased presence of immigration officers without ever forgetting that this is at heart a story about a community and the ties that bind filled with believable, beautifully written characters, many of whom may well break your heart.

For all of Top Boy’s gloom and heavy portent – during almost every scene, you wonder what terrible fate will befall the character in it – there are moments of dry humour. ... It is not a flattering portrait of our times, but as a TV drama, it is up there with the best – tense, gripping and relentless.
