    By Helen Cowley from LOVEFiLM

    Katie Jarvis' debut role steals the show in this bleak drama about life on a council estate.

    Brilliant film, with brilliant characters and amazing acting. I highly recommend. Aside from the two main characters, the little sister is one of the most brilliant characters ever portrayed on film.

    Excellent film. Gritty and 'real'. A snapshot of life as it really is for some folks in Britain. Excellent acting. A little depressing at times, but also makes you smile.

    Realistic film about being brought up in a council estate and the difficult issues that occur where the family has not developed good boundaries and given the child the love and support needed growing up. Katie Jarvis and Michael Fassbender parts were acted very well.

    Would recommend watching.

  • A very good under-rated BBC film.

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By Bobsview (554 reviews) from Gloucestershire , 21 Oct 2012
    Bleak gritty portrayal of the lives of a very youg single mother and her two daughters the oldest of whom is 15 in a grim tower block in an east London sink estate. Depressing and sadly extremely realisitc view of people living hopeless lives . The mothers boyfriend also turns his attention on the daughter with predictably disastrous results. A compelling watch.
