The Street
ITV3, 9.00PM
Jimmy Mcgovern’s gloom-ridden Noughties drama comprised six stand-alone episodes all set on the same Liverpool street. In this instalment from 2009, Anna Friel stars as a single mother trying to hold down two jobs, pay the mortgage and get her two sons into a better school. What unfolds is expertly crafted and at times gut-wrenching to watch. PS
