The Bay 2

Great discussion about it on Digital Spy (wash my mouth out with soap) re the age of the deaf and dumb brother who is in sixth form. He looks old enough to be the school headmaster - have a look. In real life the actor is 25 playing a 16 year old who looks about 45. :D
First episode with new characters and thought it was OK.
Lol. I went on there too to see what people were saying. Probably the most obvious miscast I've ever seen. It's too obvious he's an older man to play a with former. His acting was fine though.

* sixth
 
I've only seen to first 2 epsidoes of this series, got to admit i miss Lisa but have warmed to the new character

The character is definitely older than school age and definitely deaf but I don’t think he’s “dumb”

He didn't speak in the first episode just signed. Did not know if was offensive to use the term d and d and we always referred to people as so - my Grandfather always used this of himself.

But surely that’s mute rather than dumb? I think in 2022 we’re past calling people with disabilities dumb, in your Grandfather’s day that was probably what he was told his condition was but we’ve come a long way since then.

Yes I know that - did you not read that I wrote - I did not know it was offensive to use that term now. You should realise that us older people miss out on a lot of these word changes. Back to the Bay.
