What sets Brassic apart is its handling of mental health, and this episode has a quietly devastating B-plot for Jim (Steve Evets). Jim’s attempts to reconnect with an estranged family member are handled without a single punchline. There’s a long take of him sitting alone on a park bench, watching a kid play football, that lingers for almost two minutes. No music. No dialogue. Just regret. It’s a masterclass in understated acting from Evets. brassic s05e05 webdl
