Do love a bit of Stephen Graham, really looking forward to this.

Based in a fictional Liverpool care home, Help tells the moving story of the relationship between a young care home worker and a patient at the start of the Coronavirus pandemic.

The story has been written by BAFTA award-winning writer Jack Thorne - and the 120 minute drama will chart how Sarah and Tony's lives are changed forever by the unprecedented period.

Jodie plays a shy care home worker named Sarah who forms a special connection with Stephen Graham's Tony, a 47-year-old who has been diagnosed with Young Onset Alzheimers.

On tomorrow.

Beautifully acted, as you would expect, from the main two.

The improbable ending and odd political stance took a little of the gloss off for me. Also, Cathy Tyson and Sue Johnston met their ends with a shrug of the shoulders since they had not developed fully in the psyche.

That said, two great performers (obviously mates), in full flow was a joy to behold.

Both were wonderful , especially Jodie Comer on her own on the night shift . The last 30 minutes or so were rather cliched and Hollywood though.

Stephen Graham is having a truly extraordinary year with this, Time and The North Water.

I broadly agree with this. It was a hard watch but outstanding.

It was excruciating and beautiful.
And the actors are all brilliant, and pretty much all Scousers. Comer, Graham, Johnston and Hart -- experts in their craft, the lot of them.
