Join Fraser as he reviews the full first season of Small Prophets, the 2026 BBC Two comedy drama from Mackenzie Crook, the creator of Detectorists, exploring whether this quietly strange story of grief, alchemy and homunculi lives up to its remarkable cast.
This episode contains full spoilers.
In this review, Fraser shares why Pearce Quigley's deadpan performance as Michael left such a lasting impression, how Lauren Patel's reaction to seeing the prophets for the first time became one of the season's standout moments, and why the room dedicated to Clea stayed with him long after the finale ended.
