The boiling point of working in a busy restaurant at Christmas is perfectly captured in this short drama. If ever you've worked in hospitality at The Festive season, you'll be able to recognise and feel the pressure, it's incredibly demanding.
I had absolutely no idea that this was made prior to the wonderful film. Of course it's similar to the film in terms of story, frustration and frayed tempers, but as you'd expect, it feels a little raw in comparison, it's possibly a little punchier, but due to the running time, it perhaps lacks a little bit of the character development.
This is the reason why I'd argue Stephen Graham is one of the best, his performance here is outstanding, he's a tremendous actor, so talented.
I need to revisit the film ahead of the new series, I am so excited about it.
8/10.
