Perhaps the opening shot of a turd on a child's swing should have given it away. This new drama attempts to present an anonymous housing estate as a microcosm for all the perceived social ailments you can think of.

Just to give you an idea of the dramatis personae: we have a porn baron who watches adult films with his small children, a nine-year-old skunk dealer, a pregnant teenage girl in an inter-racial relationship, a young lad trying to come to terms with his transsexualism while his mother attempts suicide in an upstairs bedroom - quite a shopping list. All of which would be fine if there were any coherent plot or sympathetic characters.

The men are brutes and the women are put-upon.
