Amazingly done

I was expecting another Whodunnit drama series which i didn't mind watching as i was bored out of my skull on a Sunday night. But this was amazing right from the word go.

Jaimie Winstone was best by far. But it was very sensitive to the Ipswich families involved and yet maintained A VERY good drama. It dealt with the motives behind prostitution very well.

In some parts i wanted to cry and others Scream at these girls for working on the streets. But it was damn well worth the watch. Its so good I think i might get it on DVD. Which would be the first mini series i ever think is worth the buy.
