excellent
I saw this when it appeared on TV and was totally absorbed by it. In fact, I still can remember some parts vividly. It's a excellent, gritty portrayal of how innocent girls become trapped in a sordid and dangerous life as prostitutes. John Simm is one of my favourite actors and has been ever since I saw him in another TV drama set in the Lake District. Now, of course, he's well known for the excellent TV series 'Life on Mars'. Here, he gives another superb performance but the highest accolade must go to the main female lead, Anamaria Marinca, who won an award , I think, for her portrayal of one of the kidnapped sisters. This is no comfortable story. It is upsetting, disturbing and very realistic. You'll remember it long after you've seen it and that, to me, says quality drama.

a long, slow simm-er ..
At times, painfully slow moving, but otherwise an excellent, thought-provoking piece of work .. Great locations of Boston, Canada, Eastern Europe and of course London .. John Simm, as ever, gives a class performance ..
