Netflix has quietly become quite a talent factory here in the UK, specialising in finding young British actors and propelling them to massive fame when they star in shows and movies that go viral or climb the charts. While he wasn't the main star of Netflix's Sex Education, it's clear that Conor Swindell is using that show as a springboard.
Now he's fronting up another series for Netflix, and like Sex Education it's got a very British flavour to it, but with a much darker story. This is The Bombing of Pan Am 103, a retelling of the harrowing Lockerbie bombing, taking in the story from multiple perspectives, including Swindell's on the ground as what seems to be a local policeman.
