The Children

Some difficult issues handled quite well but I found the non-sequential nature of action annoying more than confusing and any programme that repeatedly cuts in slow motion action of any kind is irritating; in this case a child falling back onto glass, indicating that the programme was being dragged out to fill the time available. I am old-fashioned, I just want them to tell the story. Good acting, good characters and the ending leaves you guessing but I feel it could have been better.
