Getting caught with a 'lady of the night'
The story of how struggling lawyer and divorcee Greg found himself on the wrong side of the justice system.
Featuring: Stephen Merchant (Greg) & Chloe Partridge (Rosie).
Press
The chief problem with The Outlaws is that none of them is very likeable. Writer Stephen Merchant plays Greg, a solicitor arrested in his car with a prostitute. Eleanor Tomlinson is a social media junkie, in every sense, with a vicious temper, and Christopher Walken is an alcoholic fraudster who talks like a Prohibition-era gangster.
There's barely any story. Last week someone stole some money and hid it, this week a couple of other people found it. We're supposed to be drawn into the characters' lives. But I'd cross the road to avoid most of them.
