Pete and Maddie receive a shock from the hospital, who explain that there was a mix up with their child, that baby Theo was the child of another couple, and their son David, was given to Miles and Lucy, the couples try to work to a solution.
I thoroughly enjoyed this four part series, and despite some of the less than favourable commentary in the press, I think this was an excellent series.
Ignore the negative reviews, I'm not sure some watched this the whole way through.
It's very well paced, emotionally charged and full of tension. It will make you feel angry and stressed, good drama is supposed to make to make you feel, this certainly does that.
Put yourself in the shoes of Pete and Maddie, can you imagine being in their situation, it's a parent's worst nightmare.
I'm not sure why, but this put me in mind of their slick 2 part ITV dramas from the early 2000's, it has that kind of vibe, a time where itv made some really great drama.
Great performances, and arguably it's James Norton who headlines it, but James McArdle perhaps steals it, I haven't disliked a character for such a long time, Miles is a monster. Credit to the two kids also, they do such a good job.
Quality viewing.
8/10.
