I commend to TCW readers a fact-based three-part drama on BBC1 called Three Girls.
It is the most horrifyingly realistic account of young white girls being groomed and used for sex in Rochdale, controlled and handed around by Pakistani men. It is also an insight into how the authorities (police and social services) turned their collective backs on the problem, although perhaps caricaturing.
Interestingly there was very little pre-publicity and our TV guide (published by the Sun and distributed with Saturday’s edition) did not pick the show out for mention in its daily or weekly highlights.
I look forward – if that is the right phrase – to two more episodes/sleepless nights.
