I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) My problem with dramatisations of true events is that they are not necessary. Documentary makers are best placed to relate facts. As entertainment it is watchable - although I thought Helen looked a bit out of place there were some good performances. ~Tubbs
