Second Generation Yes, I am in love with Parminder Nagra, so this review is gonna lean on the side of slighty unbias, made for Channel 4 after Bend it Like Beckham and just before she joined the cast of E.R, Second Generation despite being British made as yet yet to recieve a U.K release, and it's not even yet listed on DVDaficionado.com, so I counted myself lucky when I was able to find it in America.

In a modern reworking of King Lear, where a businessman lies in a coma while 2 of his daughters plan to turn off his life support machine and sell his business. His third daughter (Nagra) has his best interests at heart but is estranged from the family. In all honesty it's fair to say this two parter isn't up too much- if Ms. Nagra wasn't involved, I would probably have next to zero interest. Nagra is wonderful here, the rest of the cast put in decent performances even Danny Dyer plays a somewhat likeable character for the first time and it as actually a nice ending.

Anyway, I'd only recommend it to other Nagra fans, British Television drama as been done a lot better before and since, nothing special. (R1 only)
