I watched the very first episode of The Guilty. I found it very touching and real. All of the main characters were strong actors and played out the story well. The first episode consisted of the finding of the young boy after 5 years of him being missing, it also included some hints using flashbacks to the time leading up to his disappearance. I enjoyed this drama a lot as it really grabbed me and reeled me in. I liked it so much that I will be watching next weeks episode and carrying on with the entire series.
An interesting choice of drama and a relevant review. The bridging unit task asked you to consider the representation of the central characters too. Look back at your research into thet erm representaation .
