Robert Glenister leads the cast as cab driver Tony
The series follows lonely taxi driver Tony, who after losing his teaching job and the collapse of his marriage, starts to live an increasingly isolated life and finds himself forming an unhealthy obsession with late-night radio DJ, Lawrence.WATCH: Robert Glenister stars in Channel 5’s The Night Caller
So far, we've seen flashbacks showing a schoolboy struggling in a swimming pool. Then in episode two, Tony recognises a young girl in school uniform while riding the bus. Before getting off at the next stop, the girl sees Tony and looks at him with despair. He quickly mouths, 'I'm sorry,' before she steps off.Later in the episode, Tony speaks about his old teaching job whilst on a date with Rosa, revealing that he used to be the head of science and pastoral care.
A third viewer offered a possible theory, penning: "Seems like a child died on his watch. So he was dismissed, and now he lives with the trauma and tragedy." "But for Tony, teaching is what he feels he was born to do. Losing that purpose after quite a successful career starts a downward spiral," he added.
