The Gathering

Loved the gathering, watched season 1 in one go as I couldn't stop. Gutted to hear there won't be a season 2 as it was really good! Hopefully ch4 will have a change of heart. Watch it as you won't be disappointed. Great acting and a brilliant story line. Come on ch 4 get your act together as there's so much more to be told! The characters were amazing and really good actors and the story line was so good. There's so many things still to play out! Don't usually like things that go back in time as I get confused but this was different class. It's absolutely worth a watch if you've a spare 6 hours as you'll be hooked!

"The Gathering," created by the same team behind Line of Duty, unfolds on a secluded island transformed into a vibrant party hotspot. The series delves into the experiences of a student who finds themselves entangled in a web of trouble at an illicit rave.

I came across this show that I found to be incredibly gripping and entertaining. The performances from the fresh, young cast were truly impressive. Eva Morgan's portrayal of Kelley was outstanding, and she truly embodied the role of the protagonist. Additionally, Sonny Walker's performance as Adam and Sadie Soverall's portrayal of Jessica were also remarkable. The storyline was engaging, and I particularly enjoyed how the different plotlines of each character were well-developed and well-written. I would definitely recommend this show to others, and I'm eagerly hoping for a second season to see more of these compelling characters.

Something a little different in this drama, free running and gymnastics. Quite a realistic portrayal of young people/teenagers.

Nice to see some new actors, not the same old bunch of luvvies.

I only recognised Warren, who always gives value for money.

In my opinion the City of Liverpool is the star of the drama. Nice to see different parts of the city, not the usual grubby parts.

I stumbled across this programme by accident, I just don't understand why, Channel 4 have bought and paid for a drama to be made and not bothered advertising it!! I've watched two back to back, so far. I mustn't be greedy and binge them!

I suppose this series was aimed at a younger crowd, but my 'kids' are 10+ years older than the characters and I very much enjoyed this. It was refreshing to watch a genre I wouldn't normally consider because of (what I perceive) as the target age of the series.

Of course, there are typical scenarios with young adults but it had REAL BONES. A very good story line and very good performances of all the actors involved.

It was nice to see. Warren Brown, who I remember in Luther, Good Cop (ANOTHER series that should have had a second season), Strike Back just to name a few.

It's very frustrating when a series ends and you're holding your breath for the next season. They literally left me/us on a cliff edge!

Why do the powers that be keep cancelling well plotted, well written, well acted series like this>> So frustrating!

1 star less for the random and unnecessary porn moments, please just cut the camera, if you want me to believe they are children then don't expect me to be comfortable watching them in adult moments!

Ignoring that, what a truly fantastic and believable unravelling of events, the contrast of the working class and the upper class was brilliant, the location and actors were 100% believable as Scouse or from the Wirral which is a refreshing change! The writing was brilliant, every twist and turn, the web of connections, I just loved it, best TV show I've watched in years! We ended up watching over two evenings. I'm not sure the synopsis does this TV show justice as to the content its clearly not just about social media, its social connections, social classes, the underbelly vs the elite, its just brilliant.

The lead actress playing Kelly was amazing, I cannot believe this is her first role, I'll look forward to seeing her in the future, the whole cast were brilliant but her and Adam (Sonny) really stood out as brilliant.
