“It’s unlikely there’ll be a TV moment this week more moving than the one that came at the start of the programme. At present there are 6.5 million people caring for a loved one at home in the UK; those who watch this film will have a strong sense of recognition. Showing the challenges that so many people are facing in caring for the chronically ill at home is something that cannot be shown enough. In that sense, Garraway is turning her family’s situation into something of wider value, which is a positive for them and something to be applauded by us.”
James Jackson, The Times
“This account of her family’s long ordeal was not only moving, but a truthful reflection of wider problems that affect millions in Britain.”
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail
“Given its broadcast in the same week that the Government ended official Covid-19 restrictions, this was a timely reminder of the appalling ravages that the virus can inflict. And yet, interestingly, the illness itself was barely mentioned. There was laughter amid the tears. But there was more darkness than light as Garraway eloquently summarised the lot of so many of Britain’s 6.5 million carers. As a collection of moments, documentaries don’t come much more moving than this.”
