Wythenshawe watching Crappy Fims
Just started this, only 10 mins in and looks excellent.
Short 5 ep series.

  • The North Water tells the story of Patrick Sumner, a disgraced ex-army surgeon who signs up as ship's doctor on a whaling expedition to the Arctic. On board he meets Henry Drax, the harpooner, a brutish killer whose amorality has been shaped to fit the harshness of his world. Hoping to escape the horrors of his past, Sumner finds himself on an ill-fated journey with a murderous psychopath. In search of redemption, his story becomes a harsh struggle for survival in the Arctic wasteland.

Oh yeah definitely brutal! Not sure how much you’ve watched so far so I don’t want to spoil it for you but last couple episodes really showcase the height of brutality

I've one episode left, its fantastic, keeps getting better. Henry Drax (Colin Farrell) is one evil savage, Farrell is amazing as is Jack O'Connell .

It’s my favorite stuff I’ve seen from Farrell since ‘In Bruges’, though I might be leaving off something.
