It must be said when it comes to making dramas the BBC very rarely fails. This was brilliant.
Maud is a mother and grandmother tackling life's daily challenges only in reality she is in the depths of dementia. The story centres around Maud trying to find her friend Elizabeth who has gone missing. Nobody seems to care apart from Maud and the frustration she feels is very evident. The current events are also triggering past memories of another missing person in Maud's life but I won't say anymore about that.
Glenda Jackson is absolutely amazing as Maud. My husband actually asked me if she has dementia in real life, her performance is so convincing.
Losing a parent to dementia is a fear every person must contemplate at some point and this drama echoes that fear with unabashed realism.
This is an emotional ride you won't forget in a hurry. A must see.
