James McAvoy on his BBC lockdown drama Together

The actor's new film is a bittersweet look at life during the pandemic. We need a record of what we went through, he argues, from the tragic to the ridiculous.

Together: One of the best Covid dramas so far

Sharon Horgan and James McAvoy played an unnamed couple (always a bit annoying for a reviewer but I won't let that affect my steely objectivity) who entered the first Covid lockdown convinced of the fact that they hated each other.
