Adolescence viewers have spotted a major clue that ‘gives away’ Jamie Miller’s fate just minutes into the groundbreaking Netflix drama – but did you notice it when you watched?
The four-part series – which premiered on the streaming service on March 13 – follows a young lad called Jamie (Owen Cooper), who is arrested for killing his female classmate.
The show has received rave reviews as it has cleverly brought to attention the rise in misogyny amongst young boys.
But one fan took to TikTok to point out something that has blown a lot of viewers’ minds.
They shared a clip from the first episode, when the police burst into Jamie’s family home to arrest him for the murder and Jamie is in bed in his bedroom.
The schoolboy looks scared as the police surround him and he places his hand on the wall, where part of the wallpaper has come off, and some think that the mark looks like a knife.

They wrote on the video: ‘Foreshadowing. Did anyone else notice?’
And captioned the post: ‘This cannot have been an accident.
‘The level of detail in this show made it a masterpiece. #adolescence #owencooper #netflix #cinematography.’
Many rushed to the comments section on the post to share their thoughts.
One said: ‘The rip in the wallpaper is like a knife and its as if he is holding it. It amazes me how so many people let this show go right over their heads.’
Another added: ‘It’s something I noticed on the last ep too when the dad was in his room.’
‘He even checks his hand as if he’s checking he cleaned them properly,’ a third chimed in.
A fourth added: ‘And the very last scene when the dad is on his bed is like the knife in his back.’

Meanwhile another said: ‘Did not notice that! good spot.’
Another wrote: ‘I kept looking at the tear on the wall. It bothered me, but I didn’t put that together! Brilliant!’
‘I was wondering about that rip as it seemed a important thing,’ a third added.
A fourth chimed in: ‘I didn’t realise this until I saw another TikTok!’
Adolescence is created and written by Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham.
The show is directed by Philip Barantini.
Jamie Miller is played by Owen Cooper, while his dad Eddie is played by Stephen Graham.
Christine Tremarco plays his mum Manda, while Amélie Pease plays his sister Lisa Miller.
Top Boy legend Ashley Walters took on the role of DI Luke Bascombe and Erin Doherty plays psychiatrist Briony Ariston.
The future of the show was ‘revealed’ after the series broke streaming records.
Adolescence reached 24.3million views in just the first four days of its release – and many have begged for another season.
A source told The Sun: ‘Execs are thrilled by the results and acclaim for Adolescence, it’s seen as a format that can run and run, at least to a second series if not further, as it could take in a different teen issue each series.
‘The topic has resonated with viewers because it taps into parents biggest fear and there’s plenty of scope for more in the same vein.
‘Stylistically, the one-take creative approach could become the hallmark of the series. It’s one of the aspects which has got everyone talking.’
