Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said the Netflix series Adolescence should be shown in schools after the powerful drama starring Stephen Graham explored the debate about masculinity and toxic influences online.
It's not a spoiler now to say the show follows the story of a 13-year-old accused of a murdering a girl at his school and what might have led to this.
Writer and creator Jack Thorne was among those giving evidence to parliament's women and equalities committee this week.
He stressed that he wasn't an expert but outlined how his research and experience of making the drama had left him believing that more protection and Australian-style rules on social media needed consideration.
One of the questions here: Would you let your child take their mobile phone to bed with them?
