BODILY HARM
Trailer
This riveting series zeroes in on an apparently ordinary suburban family whose lives are suddenly rocked to their very foundations. Mitchel Greenfield (Timothy Spall, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street) is on the surface a well-balanced and happy family man. He loves his wife Mandy (Lesley Manville, Phantom Thread), dotes on his sparky teenage daughter Nic (Sadie Thompson, 30 Seconds Apart) and is a devoted son to his aging parents, Sidney (George Cole, Minder) and Sheila (Annette Crosbie, One Foot in the Grave). However, on the eve of his forty-fourth birthday, he is struck by a volley of devastating psychological blows. Mitchel's world begins to collapse, and he struggles with all his might to cling on to the one thing he holds most dear; his family. It makes for a deeply affecting and ultimately life-affirming drama about the stresses and strains of 21st century family life. (3 EPS, 2002)
