Anyone just watched the c word?

[Dave the OAP]

Quite brilliant acting by Sheridan smith playing lisa lynch who died of breast
cancer.

It was the best thing I have seen on TV for years!

If you missed it, it will be on I player soon and I thoroughly recommend it.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Yes, powerful drama, but beautifully done.

 

[cunningplan]

Moving and finely acted

 

[severnside gull]

Genuine quality television.

 

[dazzer6666]

Top work by everyone involved. Sad, moving, beautifully acted.

 

[essbee]

What a superb actor that lady is.

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Yes very moving.

What has she been in before?

Thoughts with all those going through something similar.

 

[glasfryn]

thats why we did not watch it,my step daughter has been clear for two years now ....................I don't think she watched it either.
the actress was in Cilla which was great

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Ah yes, Cilla, also very good.

Can understand why you didn't watch, all the best to you & yours.

 

[desprateseagull]

Sheridan is amazing, in whatever she does.

 

[Medwayseagull]

Sheridan is one of my favourite actresses - very versatile and always excellent. This was an outstanding performance which I hope gets recognized in next years awards season. I think she first came to prominence in two pints of lager etc and hasn't looked back since.

 

[surlyseagull]

She also played Ronnie Biggs wife along with Daniel Mays ,two of our best actors imo.

I fear my 80 year old mum may have watched it - she is 6 years clear of bowel cancer - will have brought back powerful emotions for sure

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Superb dramatisation, powerful and moving. Great acting too.

 

[Machiavelli]

Yep. Deserved plaudits once again. The BBC is getting better with its drama output, at long last.

 

[Vicar!]

Spoke to Kris (end scene on Brighton beach) via Twitter, the whisky was real, and somehow the scene required four takes. Hic!

 

[Beach Hut]

Just watching it now, very good.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I thought it was quite disappointing and I didn't find it particularly emotive, being a dramatisation.

However, I don't think I will ever be moved so much as watching 'Dying to Live' - following Kris Hallenga and her cancer journey.

She made a cameo at the end on Brighton beach.
