The Rebel (2016)
Rebellion cannot exist without a strange form of love

2 series comedy set in Brighton. Series 1 is 3 episodes and Series 2 is 6 episodes. Simon Callow is excellent as Henry Palmer a sweary slightly more anarchic Victor Meldrew type. Excellent support from Anita Dobson and Bill Paterson. Callow's character basically does all the things that we often wish to do but of course in real life wouldn't do. It is a fun bit of escapism exploring the frustrations of a pensioner Mod and his colleagues. The soundtrack is great listening with a mix of Mod, Northern Soul, Psychedelic and Rock classics.
