[Filmin] The main character has a certain attraction, a woman who returns to her village after eighteen years in prison. Screenwriter and lead actress, Daisy Haggard creates an interesting starting point, but is practically revealed in episode two. Talk about second chances, about the need to be able to control our own life. But the resolution seems to go against the proposal, it lacks risk and daring. The rest is a less seductive dramedy than it appears.

This show is my favorite Daisy Haggard project. She's fantastic and the actors who play her parents are superb.

The series deals with serious and dark themes but through the lens of a caricatured village - such that these things can More
