Three Families BBC 1

[unique1986]

The two-part drama explores Northern Ireland's strict abortion law and its impact on three different families between 2013 and 2019.

Looks very good and powerful. 9pm tonight.

I saw a write-up of this in the paper today - I am going to record it.

I’m working but will record /watch on iplayer

Bump

so much good tv tonight

im watching

I am gripped already

so am i

so she bought over the internet for her daughter

I missed a bit - who was the dad? I heard her say abuse

dont think we have seen him but the girl had severe bruising from him

That dr had no empathy at all. Traumatising

I think they’re doing a fantastic job with this. My heart is breaking for all of them and I’m genuinely upset that women go through this.

I think the actress playing Hannah is outstanding.

Hannah is fantastic. My heart is breaking for her.

I’ve just realised she played Maddie in Coronation Street! I’m amazed. What a good actress!

Amazing drama.

This was gripping. But I’m confused - three families? I think I only saw two?

Who are the three families... I can only see two!

Since this was based on real cases I presume those make doctors are still in the system, paid to ‘care’ for women.

And the lawyers.

Shame on them.

Plenty of time for a third family in the next episode.

Yes, I thought the third family May be one impacted by the campaign?

Third family in part 2 tomorrow.

I've gone on to iPlayer to watch ep 2!

Abhorrent.

I just can't find the words.

Ok I've watched ep 2 but no spoilers, it's worth watching though

That was utterly heartbreaking. Those women are incredibly brave and the doctors abhorrent.

Really moving and powerful stories.

I think that's one of the most heartbreaking things I've seen in a while. Those poor families.
