No, Itโs Not on Netflix
The show we are going on about is calledย Timeย and is available on Apple TV in the United States and BBC iPlayer if you live in the United Kingdom. The story revolves around Mark Cobden, a schoolteacher. Mark is involved in a drunk-driving accident in which he almost kills a cyclist. He is then sent to prison, where he has to face the harsh realities of life as an inmate.
Dealing With Intimidation
One of these harsh realities he faces is constantly being intimidated by one of the inmates. And itโs not just any inmate, but one of the most dangerous men held in the entire facility. There are not only external threats, either. He is also simultaneously battling with the guilt he feels for the accident. The story unravels through the experiences of three of the inmates โ all of them very different. The synopsis of the film describes it as aย โmoving and high-stakes portrayal of life inside a prisonโ.ย
