This appears to be a meticulously researched docudrama about the trafficking of young girls in the Yorkshire region. It did make the headlines but seemed to have dragged on for ages. It's still difficult to understand how the girls could have fallen into the trap but with the chaotic home lives, I guess it was understandable. Inaction, often taking the path of least resistance by the authorities, police and social services, was not helpful and one can only hope that this event lead to better monitoring to prevent situations like this from occurring in the future.
This needed to be scripted and played so strongly and correctly and I think they hit the mark. Maybe we need more, the amount of young women who have come forward in the last 10 is shocking and heartbreaking. But more than that it makes me angry that I live around the area and we were blind to it.
This should be a warning to us all that tippy toeing around because we might cause offence does not and should never come before the welfare of our children.
Sad thing about this series is that one community will get tarred with the brush, which is unfair but more must have known what was going on even if they opposed it.
Some great performances, my favourite was from maxine Peak, superb.
Watch it, be careful if you have teen children

Very good documentary style based in real life people and situations. Harrowing to watch and scarily, still under reported and even in Rochdale still going on. One my daughter gets a bit older its something i want her to watch as a warning.
Brilliantly researched account of this ongoing case which is presented by a superb cast. You can only feel admiration for those girls who had the guts to put themselves through this and for the sexual health team who first tried to bring it to the police.
Extremely moving if harrowing and the lessons still have to be learned nationally as this is not just about grooming in the north of England. It's far more widespread.

This is perhaps the most harrowing show I have ever watched. I'm fact, I could only manage it in twenty minute segments. However, it is absolutely incredible. The story it tells, the acting is unbelievable, the questions it raises, it really is a fabulous piece of television. Well done to everyone involved in the making of this.
