Worlds End - TNT

In an emotional 70 minutes, Paul Sellar's Edinburgh transfer pulls apart a three-year relationship as Charlotte Lucas's artist Kat packs her belongings. It's a job made even more upsetting by the obstinate presence of her ex (Merryn Owen's struggling but half-hearted writer Ben) who promised to be out when she came round, but now refuses to leave the basement flat they used to share — partly because he's hoping to change her mind, partly to satisfy his curiosity about the man who's replaced him.It's a sad but familiar last-ditch scenario, given added interest when Kat's tall, dark and handsome new man drops his guard and her high-maintenance best friend shows her true colours.
