  Editor Review 09 November 2017

  

  A beautifully presented drama serial set in a small Lake District district town. Seven year old Joe loves music and walking and is just starting to appreciate he is different from other kids. He can name every hit record for decades for a start! Joe has autism and his parents want the best for their son which means they face the difficult decision about where Joe will be happiest at school. The relationships of Joe's family, including his grandparents, parents, sister and family friends all struggle with their own issues and create a real insight into the highs and lows of loving a child who is unalike the other kids. A sweet drama with, great acting and all the intensity of real life challenges set in the best location in the UK.
  
  Verdict
  A must see for all parents of youngsters!

All six episodes from the second series of the BBC drama about a family adjusting to life with their autistic son. At first Alison and Paul Hughes (Morven Christie and Lee Ingleby) are in denial about the unusual behaviour displayed by their five-year-old son Joe (Max Vento). But his grandfather Maurice (Christopher Eccleston) forces the pair to confront reality when he discovers Joe has autism. The family try as best they can to cope with the life-changing revelation but find themselves fighting over their intentions for Joe.
