Acting
Harrison and Sweeney's exhausted masculine wreckage.
Writing
Dialogue so Glaswegian it needs its own glossary.
Production
Glasgow as character — grey, wet, unglamorously real.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot on location in Glasgow's actual former gang territories — local casting includes ex-offenders in minor roles.
The series deliberately mirrors the structure of Greek tragedy: one day, one location, inevitable collapse. The son's anniversary isn't just backstory — it's the ticking clock.
