Created by Ayesha Carr and Paul Hunter, Government Cheese tells the story of Hampton Chambers (David Oyelowo), a criminal in the 1960s who has recently been released from prison. With a new life on the horizon, Hampton has aspirations of returning to his wife and children and starting a legitimate business with an innovative new drill. However, his reunion doesn’t go as planned. With his wife and children having (mostly) moved on emotionally, Hampton’s return spins their world into chaos. In this 1on1, we speak to star Bokeem Woodbine about doing the ‘right thing the wrong way’.
