Toxic Town

Amazing series. Intresting and emotional story. Very likable main characters. The acting in this is incredible but especially from Jodie Whittaker and Aimee Lou Wood. Very interesting and important story I've lived in Corby since birth and the acting and settings felt like they were relatively realistic of what you would expect from ordinary Corby folks. I did notice modern shots of Corby town centre when it looked completely different to that in the 90s and early 2000s, and it did feel like there was something unnatural about how some of the streets were set out. Overall didn't impact my enjoyment of the show or the story, but just slightly off perfec.

I actually started this show randomly because I noticed the actress from onther show, a show I really loved so I thought let's give it a try! I finished all 4 episodes in one day and I just can say this show was so good. But it also makes me sad at the same time because it is not just a show. It's based on true "events". The talent in this series is incredible. The story is presented in a way that you feel deeply for the characters both good and bad. This is a must watch and a reminder of the ignorance of toxic waste and it's effects. I just can say this show is worth it, and if you need a little show to watch with a few episodes: this show is perfect for you. 10/10.

Wow, this is a great story! Its realistic, fast pace and its solid performances make it an ideal proposal for those who enjoy stories based on real events about justice, corruption and citizen resistance.

The most powerful thing about the story is its human dimension, it not only portrays the legal case, but also the emotional and economic consequences that the fight has on the protagonists and their families.

Some things in the evolution of these families can be frustrating, although due to the dynamics of the story it never becomes annoying.

A lot happens in just 4 episodes, and I watched the entire series in two sittings.

Top notch! Don't miss it!

I loved this show and wish it was a bit longer. It's sad to know this is a reality in our world and why are health as a whole is on a rise in multiple areas. From deformities, to autism, to many other health issues. I'm not a big fan of most of it regardless if you use safety or not. To many horror stories and waters still poisoned in states for decades. It's even worse that companies cut corners putting profit before health and safety. Its embarrassing and needs more money put into the research of the harm it all causes. I'm glad the mothers were able to win and it makes me happy to hear. Id like to look into all the true facts of this story.

Watched on Netflix 4-4-2025.

Wow, just wow.

A good adaptation of a true story.

Very well written and excellent acting.

I absolutely loved how true the programme makers were to keeping it in the 1990s. Decor, accessories, clothes, cars.... every thing was so well represented.

The story, I am not from up north and was not at an age to remember it in the press, so thoroughly enjoyed the telling of the case and journey all the characters took.

Given the corruption and politics, it was handled well, it was not too top heavy on politics which can bog down a series. More about the feelings and the people.

Really worthy of the time.
