Rain Dogs is a new HBO dramedy from BBC One and Sid Gentle Films Ltd about a mother and her daughter trying to navigate a life of British poverty while also exploring a complex relationship with a privileged gay man fresh out of prison. Daisy May Cooper fronts the show as Costello, mother to ten-year-old Iris, and Jack Farthing plays opposite her as the charming but erratic and perhaps dangerous Selby.
This is a very good show that could well become extremely popular over the season, and if nothing else it might reinforce the point that Daisy May Cooper should be in everything.
Anyway, here’s what happened in Rain Dogs Season 1, Episode 2:
- Costello was approached by a journalist while working at the peep show. She claimed to be a fan of her work and offered to pay Costello £500 for a story (written by Costello) about her experiences working there. However, the journalist publishes the story in her own words in the form of an interview about sex work.
- Selby spent the day with Iris, treating her to some Mahjong and a Chinese, and mocked the support group he has to attend as part of his probation as a violent offender. He also burned all the copies of the paper that published the story about Costello.
- Gloria meets a man named Paul at her family-owned funeral home business.
- Richard, a photographer for the paper who met Costello while she was working, burned an issue of the paper in solidarity and asked Costello out for a coffee.
