Coma

Coma is a 2024 British television drama series starring Jason Watkins and Jonas Armstrong aired on channel 5 in March 2024.

Devoted family man Simon finds his neighbourhood is terrorised by group of teenagers.

My mum watched this and said it was good.

The storyline was excellent every episode gets better and better throughout. It's a Drama with little suspense.

It certainly had be hooked from beginning to end.

Very believable as this kind of storyline can happen in real life.

You just didn't know which way the story was going to plan out.

You can easily binge watch this in weekend !!!

Acting is phenomenal !!!

Jason Watkins is a very versatile actor most things he has been in are very good to watch.

He makes you believe in the character, personality that is what you call a good actor.

All cast was good in their own way.

I was very impressed well worth the watch!!!

Why the low rating and negative reviews.

Dont anyone know what good drama is !!

You need to watch it.

Overall A excellent watch!!!

With superb acting.

If you like 4 part dramas such as the Teacher, the catch. Then you will love this much better than both of these.

So head over to My 5 Get watching Now !!!

Coma is a brilliantly tense thriller, over four hours of increasing intensity, there are no loops here just escalations.

It centres around a mild mannered Jason Watkins and a single moment, tormented by just about everything and anyone he snaps and his world unravels. Pretty soon he's sitting uncomfortably in wine bars with petty gangsters and lying to the police.

It is also awful, a great set of core names wondering what they are doing here. It is filmed in Eastern Europe and that doesn't get lost - it simply looks nothing like anywhere in the UK.

Somehow this manages to be enthralling, tense and awful at the same time.

It's 4 hours - it's channel 5 - there are worse things on TV to watch!

Firstly I read some other reviews just now before posting this. Some are very harsh and I think many people just expect too much. This obviously isn't going to be a big budget BBC or ITV drama, it's channel 5. Not saying it should get a free pass but the cast and crew are working on a different scale so it should be kept in mind when reviewing.

Like others I'm a big fan of Jason Watkins and he can't turn in a bad performance in my view. This show has an intriguing premise and as time goes on it does get a big bogged down in stereotypical gangster stuff but it has some decent twists and turns. A solid seven from me.

Felt compelled to leave a review after seeing the less than fair criticism given to this. For me the acting was great, the story was decent, it was filmed at a good pace and kept me engaged and watching right up to the end. The young boy Jonas Armstrong was very good and I can see him in lots of dramas in the future. This is not some big budget Hollywood movie with Oscar winning performances and I'm not really sure why everything has to be. It's a good drama, on a low scale budget and much better than Love Rat which was shown on channel 5 the previous week. To me Jason Watkins is always worth a watch and he and the rest of the cast did a great job.

I was looking forwards to viewing this as I liked the three main leads.

However a poor script ;often too repetitive gave the series a lack of drive.

The police were once again portrayed as inadequate buffoons.

The young actor who played the lout showed only a characture of what was a pivotal role ,though again this was the script rather than the actor.

The story could have been told in one episode My version was that Simon should have told Paul that it was his(Simon's) boss who hit the boy.

Then when Paul had dealt with this person,Simon could have anonymously phoned the police with details of the offence. Paul would be arrested and locked up and Simon was off the hook having only to deal with junior psycho.
