And so the third series of Sky1’s man-fuelled drama – starring John Simm (Doctor Who), Philip Glenister (Ashes To Ashes), Max Beesley (Survivors) and Marc Warren (Hustle) – comes to an end, in typical Mad Dogs style with thrills, laughs and a Dwarf Zombie.
Here at CultBox we’re hoping that “Dwarf Zombie” got trending during the latest instalment of the Sky1 drama starring John Simm (Doctor Who), Philip Glenister (Ashes To Ashes), Max Beesley (Survivors) and Marc Warren (Hustle).
Max Beesley, Philip Glenister, John Simm and Marc Warren return to Sky1 for a third series of Mad Dogs.
Set two years on from their separation in last week’s opening episode of Series 3, the four men – Baxter (John Simm), Quinn (Philip Glenister), Woody (Max Beesley) and Rick (Marc Warren) – have been exiled to South Africa under new names, and out of touch with their friends and family.
Max Beesley (Bodies) returns as Woody this summer for a third series of Mad Dogs.
Last week CultBox attended the third series premiere of Sky1’s Mad Dogs in London.
The drama, starring John Simm (Doctor Who), Philip Glenister (Life On Mars), Marc Warren (Hustle) and Max Beesley (Hotel Babylon), has proved to be a critical and populist hit – and the new run of episodes shows no signs of easing up in terms of quality.
Sky1’s remarkable drama from 2011 proved such a success that a further two series were quickly commissioned, and it’s not hard to see why.
Right from the off, the latest episode of Sky1’s middle-aged men on the run series tells you this is gonna be a different instalment of Mad Dogs. Very different indeed.
The second series of Majorca-set thriller Mad Dogs continues on Sky1, with the odds stacking up against Woody, Quinn, Baxter and Rick.
Mad Dogs, so far, has never glamourised the middle-aged buffoonery; with most episodes taking time to focus on their mistakes – both past and present.
