As hard and difficult this was to watch because of its realistic undertones, it is amazing in that and every other sense. This mini-series is so brutally on-point and straightforward in showing the dark reality of child sex abuse, human trafficking and grooming (not to mention how deadly accurate it is to the particular cases it is directly referring to), that it still haunts me to this day. The screenplay, sublime acting, pace, direction, everything was perfect. I'd recommend this to anyone who are willing to eat up their optimistic hopes and gulp the reality of this world. Because this really will do just that and set the scene. We've needed this and we've got it.
This appears to be a meticulously researched docudrama about the trafficking of young girls in the Yorkshire region. It did make the headlines but seemed to have dragged on for ages. It's still difficult to understand how the girls could have fallen into the trap but with the chaotic home lives, I guess it was understandable. Inaction, often taking the path of least resistance by the authorities, police and social services, was not helpful and one can only hope that this event lead to better monitoring to prevent situations like this from occurring in the future.

This was an extremely difficult and scary mini-series to watch. It was so unflinchingly true. We get so caught up in television series like "Law & Order: SVU" where the positive outcome of the many aspects of sexual crimes are dealt with. But in reality, the justice system is much more unforgiving and I'm certain that child sexual grooming is not just going on in the United Kingdom but of course, the British have tackled the problem first. I had to give this series a "10" the pace, the writing, acting, directing was superb. I hope many eyes will be opened.
Brilliantly researched account of this ongoing case which is presented by a superb cast. You can only feel admiration for those girls who had the guts to put themselves through this and for the sexual health team who first tried to bring it to the police.
Extremely moving if harrowing and the lessons still have to be learned nationally as this is not just about grooming in the north of England. It's far more widespread.

This is perhaps the most harrowing show I have ever watched. I'm fact, I could only manage it in twenty minute segments. However, it is absolutely incredible. The story it tells, the acting is unbelievable, the questions it raises, it really is a fabulous piece of television. Well done to everyone involved in the making of this.
