Task
9pm, Sky Atlantic
A compelling start for this new crime drama from the creator of Mare of Easttown, set in the Philadelphia suburbs. Robbie (Tom Pelphrey) is a binman by day, coping with the death of his brother while looking after his kids and niece, and maybe even looking for love. By night, though, he and his mate Cliff (Raúl Castillo) dress in Halloween costumes and burgle members of a drug-dealing biker gang. Enter Mark Ruffalo’s Tom, an FBI agent dealing with his own family bereavement, and put on the case with an inexperienced taskforce before a turf war escalates. It’s deeply layered, fantastically written and proof that the autumn nights are here. Hollie Richardson
