2002 British (BBC) television film by Dominic Savage
Out of Control is a 2002 British television film written and directed for the BBC by Dominic Savage. Tamzin Outhwaite stars as Shelley Richards, an impoverished single mother whose son, Dean (Danny Young), is involved in a string of crimes that lead to his incarceration in a young offenders institute (YOI).[2]
David Morrissey plays prison officer Mike, who tries to keep Dean out of trouble but has difficulty watching him all the time. After continuous bullying at the YOI, Dean is no longer able to cope and makes a fatal decision. Out of Control is the third in a loose trilogy of films by Savage about social deprivation, following Nice Girl (2000) and When I Was Twelve (2001).[3]
