Danny Dyer says the 'empty void' of masculinity needs addressing as he reveals that he is planning to watch Adolescence with his 11-year-old son


The former EastEnders actor, 47, revealed how he has been been captivated by the Netflix show, starring Stephen Graham, and especially by its impressive, one-shot production.

Danny Dyer has revealed that he is planning to watch Jack Thorne's hit crime drama Adolescence with his 11-year-old son, Arty, saying that the 'empty void' of masculinity needs addressing. However, the actor revealed he had been equally transfixed by the show's hard-hitting nature, which delves into several pressing themes affecting young people today, such as toxic masculinity and social media. Philip Barantini posted a celebratory Instagram story saying 'We did it' as the four-part show continues to spark conversation on how to protect young boys from misogny on social media.
