'Adolescence,' to be screened in all secondary schools across the UK

The Netflix series Adolescence, now free for UK schools, has Sir Keir Starmer hosting its creators at Downing Street to tackle what he calls a “whirlpool of hatred and misogyny” among boys. The drama, spotlighting a teenage boy accused of killing a schoolgirl, digs into incel culture and online radicalization. Starmer, with writer Jack Thorne and producer Jo Johnson, confessed, “I don’t think there’s a simple solution,” pointing to cases like Kyle Clifford, a crossbow killer steeped in misogynistic content.
