Top Boy death scene: Kane Robinson speaks out about ‘jaw-dropping’ moment


Top Boy episode four saw Jason (played by Ricky Smarts) come to his violent end as the episode titled Bonfire Night saw him burned to a crisp in a brutal house fire. The fire broke out in the middle of the night and tragic scenes of the Netflix series saw the fan-favourite realise it was all to late to escape the flames, which at this point had engulfed the entire building.

The scene saw Sully rush back into the house in a desperate attempt to rescue his friend after managing to escape, but by the time he had to come back out, Jason had gone.

The fire was covering the entire building and Jason was stuck on the second floor.

The scene proved a difficult watch for fans as Sully (Kane Robinson) had practically been a father figure to Jason.

The emotional clip saw Sully screaming to Jason to break the window, but he couldn’t do it, frantically banging the glass as the flames engulfed him.

The character will certainly missed by viewers as fans took to social media to share their devastation to see the fan-favourite sucked into the flames.

The character was known for having a difficult life with his mother an addict and no father around to look after him.

One user said: “That scene with Jase at the window and Sully just watching on. That was a hard watch.

“Jason’s story was just tragic from the start. Acting was unreal all round also #TopBoy.”

The death is perhaps the most difficult of the series with many fans frustrated Jason was killed off so early.
