A powerful film that shows the hard truth of how care homes were ignored and left to survive on their own.

Jodie Comer and Stephen Were phenomenal in their roles. The acting felt real. A true masterclass in acting and never sliding into over dramatic acting which I feel could have happened if they weren't these actors. Jodie and Stephen deserve all the awards.

Hard to watch but a must watch.

That one scene ( the night shift) that will stay with me for a long time.

Just watched this on All4. Very powerful and emotional drama highlighting the plight most care homes faced as the services collapsed because of high volume of calls and lack of preparedness scandously neglected by the authorities and Government with regards to updated safety procedures and availability of PPE equipment. The GOV (Matt Hancock) lied saying these care homes were being prioritised and kept in special bubbles, when in reality they were forgotten. Great acting by the legendary Stephen Graham and Jodie Comer. Made my heart sink watching this.

I can't exaggerate enough over how well this film was put together. Not only mentioning the fact Jodie Comer has yet again done an amazing job with this role but her and Stephen Graham's chemistry really brought the characters to life and showed us what it was like having dementia and caring for someone with dementia. Trust me, it's not easy.

Working in home care myself, i have been in the middle of the struggles working through the pandemic. For those who don't understand why carers don't get much recognition, the main reasons are in this film. Not only did they mention facts at the end, but also the true emotion of the monologue at the very end makes you realise how bad it is within the care industry. You know it's about to get real when Jodie comer breaks the fourth wall.

This film is such an eye opener, i would recommend it for anyone. And thank you Jodie comer and Stephen graham on your performances, pure talent.

What a beautiful and heartbreaking portrayal. Jodie Comer is the actress of our generation. 💜

Just a powerful movie showing the situation in a elderly care house during covid outbreak. Been read news but can't imagine how brutal scenes it could be. All scenes are real I believed and painful when watching this. Good movie to bring is truth and reality. Real hero for what Sarah did and all nursing along.
