Adolescence is streaming on Netflix and it marks actor Stephen Graham's first project as a writer. He also plays Eddie Miller, the father of 13-year-old Jamie (played by Owen Cooper) who is accused of murder.

Fans of Stephen Graham have been left calling for the actor to be handed an award after the release of a hit Netflix show, which he wrote and starred in.

Stephen Graham has issued a warning to parents of young children following the release of his gritty new Netflix series. Adolescence, which landed on the streaming service today (13 March), sees Stephen Graham act out every parent's worst nightmare when his teenage son is arrested on suspicion of murdering a classmate.

The star says the special approach to the show from producer Warp Films, co-creator and writer Jack Thorne and director Philip Barantini, meant that he was "the most zen as an actor I've ever been."

British acting legend Stephen Graham, 51, is also in the cast, delivering a gut-wrenching performance as Jamie’s dad Eddie Miller who’s striving to be there for his son while grappling with the tragedy that’s occurred. For years, plenty of people have hailed A Thousand Blows and Peaky Blinders star Stephen as one of Britain’s greatest actors ever.
