TV review: Back to Life

Jauntily paced and saturated with sarcastic remarks thrown out between deeply flawed individuals, Back To Life is tense and filled with conflict. Haggard's performance is stunning, yet utterly heartbreaking.

Back To Life review

The wintry coast of Kent provides a suitably chilly backdrop. With considerable poise, and none of the gurning she deployed in Episodes, Haggard walks that line so well trodden by Phoebe Waller-Bridge between awkward comedy and deep pathos. The first episode passes a key test: you are intrigued to know more, and you care.
