Game over

A great story of a mother's dilemma protecting her son.

Olivia Colman plays a great supporting role and is probably the real star. Ruth Sheen puts in her usual role of a wise old mum.

Michael Maloney is too well known just to play the judge but he gave the role gravitas over the severity of the case.

Emotional decisions make for riveting viewing.
