New drama about a grieving mum who confronts the man accused online for being her sons killer

But is he really a notorious child murderer or a tragic victim of mistaken identity?

In law, there is the accused and the victim. In life, it’s not that simple...

I think this will be quite heart wrenching

Really enjoying this, I like the fact that there are unlikable characters. Your sympathy lies with Annas grief but her doggedness in trying to prove Craig is EJT is irritating.
I love John Hannah but got totally confused by this because there's another series being trailed that he's in and I thought this programne was going to be it Confused

When ex H was visited in prison it was mentioned that he was due release. I think he was in for fraud or similar :he was an accountant.

Ohhh the way that cop looked at the boyfriend in court Shock

This is so good. Kelly MacDonald is excellent. (Plus I’m enjoying playing spot the place as a lot of the locations are familiar to me!)

FUUUUUUCK

JustDanceAddict · 11/04/2019 21:35

I did not expect that!!

ooItsAoBeautifulDayNow · 11/04/2019 21:37

Fuck fuck fuck. This is obviously not going to go well. I have to stop watching crime shit. Three more names I might not be able to use...

Eddie
Tom / Tommy

We'll see by the end of the show. Lucky Craig wasn't on my list.

I’m reeling! I’m still expecting home not to have killed Liam. I just can’t believe it’s him.

Megsmcgoo · 11/04/2019 21:43

I’m v shocked at this, I actually gasped!

Encyclo · 11/04/2019 21:49

This is harrowing

aleC4 · 11/04/2019 21:58

It certainly is.
So well written but awful to watch.

Macaroonmayhem · 11/04/2019 21:58

Jings. Kelly MacDonald deserves all the awards for that.

JustDanceAddict · 11/04/2019 22:00

That was a tense hour. Bloody hell!

youngestisapsycho · 11/04/2019 22:00

I sobbed all through the last 10 minutes!

purpleme12 · 11/04/2019 22:01

I don't have words

youlladdressmeassir · 11/04/2019 22:01

So did I. I'm still crying

Wow

Macaroonmayhem · 11/04/2019 22:02

Likewise Youngest. Sad

tinstar · 11/04/2019 22:02

That was absolutely brilliant.

Encyclo · 11/04/2019 22:02

I don’t know what to do with myself after that, that last 10mins was just gut wrenching.

StarbucksSmarterSister · 11/04/2019 22:02

Heartbreaking - and brilliant I'm crying too.

BumbleBeee69 · 11/04/2019 22:03

this was Brilliant .. just brilliant

aleC4 · 11/04/2019 22:04

Just an amazing drama

BitOfFun · 11/04/2019 22:04

Wow, that was so powerful!

I'm really glad that there wasn't a thriller-type twist. Just raw, truthful emotion. And some kind of redemption, I think.

Megsmcgoo · 11/04/2019 22:05

What an excellent programme, really enjoyed the whole thing and there was some excellent acting.

Quite torn with how I feel about it all
