My fave all-time show (series one). I've practically memorised the script from watching it a thousand times( or there abouts). The character of Matt was played best by Ben Chaplin no question. Matt was Martin's hero in s1 despite the fact that he walked all over him, but, by s2 Matt had become this total loser who could no longer dominate Martin like he had and it even looked like Matt (now Neil Stuke) would probably lose in a fight with Martin. Series 2 was probably better written than the first series, but for me Ben Chaplin owns that role.Who can forget that excellent De Niro impression or the story of how he had killed his father. Priceless.
