Three Girls

This three-part drama based on real-life events cut viewers to the core when it aired in the UK, so don’t expect it to be easy viewing. It explores a sickening child sexual exploitation ring in Rochdale, England, and was created with the full support of the victims. Despite pleas from their families and community health workers, the authorities fail to do anything about the abuse for five years. Utterly heartbreaking and totally mesmerising.
