DRAMA CLARK NETFLIX DRAMA

For horror fans, Bill

Skarsgard will always be

Pennywise in the most recent, blockbusti­ng adaptation­s of Stephen King’s epic novel It. But he’s on equally impressive form in this six-part drama made in his native Sweden and based on the autobiogra­phy of gangster Clark Olofsson. Skarsgard (right) plays Olofsson, who began his criminal career in the 1960s, eventually serving time for a string of offences including assault, robbery, drug traffickin­g and attempted murder. However, he’s most famous for originatin­g the phrase ‘Stockholm syndrome’ following his involvemen­t with a bank robbery hostage situation in 1973, an event that is depicted in great detail here.
