The Walk-In

Writer Jeff Pope is no stranger to true life dramas having previously written the excellent 'Little boy blue' (also starring Stephen Graham) about the tragic murder of Rhys Jones in Liverpool.

This is another meticulously researched piece looking at a racist far-right group through the events surrounding the sickening murder of MP Jo Cox in 2016 and a vicious attack on a Sikh dentist, Dr Sarandev Bhambra in 2015.

Its a hard watch and given the politics it could easily have become a point scoring piece but instead chooses to let the true events speak for themselves.

Sensible viewers watching this will draw the same conclusions, don't let the haters win and stand up against hatred wherever you see it. Its moving and important TV that deserves to be widely seen.

It was very well made in all departments - the cast were excellent and authentic. My only criticism would be the length, I think it would have worked better and been tighter over 3 or 4 episodes rather than 5.
