At a rough guess, I'd suggest that you apply this to your arse... to make it look beautiful.

Yes I totally agree Ken is Rebus. BUT, as we can't wave a magic wand and rejuvenate him they have to use someone else.
From what I can gather from the interview this is away from what we know, it's pretty violent and his brother is still alive and involved with things a lot. He's only a Sergeant in these episodes.
I've set up to record the whole series.

Wee trailer clip.

Lots of us have done boring jobs, or jobs we dislike.  Some of us do dangerous jobs. It's how we support ourselves, and the families we choose to have. 

If your friend's son had a good job, he would be well paid.  Perhaps he could have worked at something more interesting but less well paid?

Benefits should never be a choice IMO. They should be  stop gap for anyone capable of work.    Obviously there are exeptions for disability, seriously poor health etc.

General Discussion / Would you do a boring job ?
Last post by muddy - Today at 11:39:36 AM
Speaking yesterday to a friend .
Her son who had a good but boring job says it was killing him .
I felt so sorry I would hate a boring job and have to do it for life .
No wonder people prefer to claim benefits .
If the alternative in a soul destroying existence why do it ?

Ha ha 🤣

I am a big fan of the artist Jonathan Yeo 
The face is amazing 
For a man who has had such a pampered existence it looks old and worn .
It is IMO a great likeness 
I am not sure about all that red .
It's certainly controversial
