Joseph Gilgun & Nathan McMullen on Misfits series 5

We spoke to Gilgun and McMullen about what we can expect from their characters in the finale season, possible returning characters and how it all ends...

The delinquents-with-superpowers drama has always excelled in its capacity for the surreal and tonight's episode is no exception. Rudy (Joseph Gilgun) leads Finn (Nathan McMullen), Jess (Karla Crome) and Alex (Matt Stokoe) to a wild house party. But things turn weird when a six-foot rabbit wearing a suit and wielding a golf club starts making a mess of the partygoers. Then Alex makes a confession to Jess about a stolen body part.

Misfits: Series 4 Episode 2 review

Love him or loathe him (and we love him), Rudy is without a doubt the character that Misfits' writers have the best grasp of, which is why Joe Gilgun consistently and brilliantly steals focus in an episode that's meant to explore newcomer Finn (Nathan McMullen).

Wholesale cast overhauls can be difficult at the best of times, and this opener to series four suggests that Misfits hasn't recovered its poise yet after the departures of Kelly, Simon and Alisha. Curtis and Rudy remain, along with honorary Misfit Seth, to fight over a mysterious suitcase brought into their midst by a delirious lunatic. Timing their arrival less than perfectly are new recruits Jess (Karla Crome from Hit & Miss) and Finn (newcomer Nathan McMullen), both sullenly drawn into the intrigue as alliances are formed and then severed. It has its moments (largely thanks to Joe Gilgun's Rudy), but mostly amounts to a slightly lacklustre take on the failed-heist fallout, with the excellent Crome something of a spare part for now. Surely there's too much talent on- and off-screen for Misfits to lose its way entirely, but this is a problematic reinvention so far.

The first episode of the fourth series of Misfits welcomes in new tearaways Finn and Jess, in place of alumni Kelly, Alisha and Simon.

After a meeting with a familiar face and a run-in with a mysterious man with a briefcase, the newcomers soon discover that there is a lot more to donning the orange overalls than they think.

From the moment loud-mouthed-lout-with-a-dark-side Finn cracks a joke about his mother in extremely bad taste to the pitch-dark closing moments, it's a riot; with Nathan McMullen proving he can be just as feisty as the existing characters in his role as Finn.

On the other hand, Karla Crome's Jess might be the weakest link, with her style of acting - probably intended as deadpan - coming across instead as just irritating.

Overall, while there is plenty for those new to the show to sink their teeth into (Joseph Gilgun's always-hilarious Rudy) there are tidbits for stalwart fans too, including grisly violence, expletive-laden dialogue and a reference to the gang's preferred choice of ice-cream. Bring on the rest of the series.

The Bafta-winning Asbo superhero comedy drama returns for a fourth series, and two newbies are joining the community service gang - Jess (Karla Crome) and Finn (Nathan McMullen). Tonight's opening episode sees a dying man with a briefcase stuffed with cash stagger into the community centre. His presence releases an orgy of greed amongst the gang, and there's a new probation worker in town, played by Shaun Dooley.
