Invincible

A character-driven comedy drama about neighbourliness and class divisions (or lack thereof); Invincible follows Emily and Oliver – a liberal, middle-class couple from the South of England – who move up North to live a cheaper life as the 2012 recession hits, and raise their children among what they term as “real people”. There, they invite their neighbours round for drinks where the evening turns to debates about war, art and football. A microcosm for the wider discussion on class politics and world views.

Directed by Emma Croft, Invincible leans on a strong ensemble — Samantha Seager, Laura Howard, Daniel Copeland — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
