The one about the woman who was abused by her teacher when she was 12? It was written by Jodhi May, the well known actress who played Rachel, the main character.

The storyline was quite good I suppose, but the writing of the dialogue was terrible I thought, sounded very forced and unnatural. I wonder if the script would have been approved if she hadn't been known as an actress? I feel quite mean saying it, because I have really liked Jodhi May as an actress for many years, but Jodhi, honestly, go back to the day job - stick to the acting!

The last series was good, some of them better than others but they always attract well known actors. Weren’t they originally written by Jimmy McGovern or something? It’s perfect timing for me to sit and have a cuppa before picking the kids up and saves me from the awful (but mildly addictive) Jugde Rinder 😂

Jimmy McGovern is the Executive producer but I think he may have written one of this series.

Today's was great. Mind you, Sue Johnston makes everything she does into something special.

i always seem to like stuff with Sally Lindsey in, even if she does seem to play the same type of character she always comes across as down to earth in interviews

I like Sally Lindsay too. It's a shame that Mount Pleasant has finished.

Tomorrow's is on a little later which is a shame. Today I put my boots and coat on before it finished and was ready to dash out on the school run as the credits started. I'm really enjoying it. Today's was particularly good.

Todays was a bit too condensed for me, watchable but unrealistic.
