Cast Offs review: 'star in the making'!
"...I have to clear a short space in this post to praise the efforts of Tim Gebbels and Sophie Woolley, who were the featured "stars" (for lack of a better word) of my two favourite episodes, and gave two of the most incredible performances of recent years. The eerily beautiful scene of Tom wandering the desolate beach, giving an absolutely spellbinding performance of King Lear, oblivious to the observation of the camera crew, was for me one of the most exciting things that I've seen on television all year. Likewise, the image of Gabriella, sat amongst the grass with a stethoscope against her belly, attempting to make out the faint sounds of life (combined with her amazing reaction to later seeing her baby for the first time), seems to be the introduction to a real star in the making."
