- Luke Evans said his new ITV thriller "The Party" "offers a glimpse into the British class system," which he described as "particularly visible" in the UK
- The Party is an adaptation of Elizabeth Day's novel and launched on ITV last night, per the source
- Evans argued the class system "remains more prevalent here than in a" — a quote that cuts off mid-sentence in the source excerpt
