Tom Joseph

... In Deep, written by Tom Joseph and Thomas Eccleshare, whose MacGuffin comprised a message concealed in a tampon in the intimate parts of a female corpse. What redeemed it, though, was its unpredictability and crazy energy as it told the story of two hopeless inner-city policemen -- Ashley Walters and Adam Deacon -- yearning for excitement in their routine lives and suddenly (à la The Wrong Mans) getting far, far too much of it.

It ended on a cliffhanger with our two heroes bound in gaffer tape, about to be murdered by a crazed homosexual serial killer. That's the way to do your showreels: leave commissioning editors gagging to know what happens next.
