Ground Down is the fifth and last of the first batch of TUBE TUBE films to be released (don’t worry more are on their way over the next several weeks/months). At nearly 5 minutes it also the longest, which gives the characters a little bit more time to develop.
Ben Whybrow and James French play good friends discussing a recent mishap related to online dating. Since I don’t want to ruin the surprise, I won’t say anything more, but this instalment has the TUBE TUBE trademark of great dialogue that sounds like something you’d actually hear on the Tube. Director Ben A Williamns and producer Omar Kenawi are to be commended for their choice of actors in this and all previous TUBE TUBE episodes.
Finally, if you’d like to get in contact with them you can follow them on twitter @tubetubelondon, Like them on facebook and watch all their films on their YouTube channel. Also, you can read all my previous reviews of the TUBE TUBE series here.
