Each episode of Netflix humdinger Adolescence was filmed in one single shot, from start to finish. Producers set aside five days to film each one so they could thoroughly rehearse. They planned on filming each eps 10 times (once in the morning and another in the afternoon ) - some ended up being filmed more. They used the 16th take for the finale. You better not be the actor who forgets their line with one minute left to go! Know thy lines actor. >>
