DRAMA Maternal
ITV1, 9pm
Jacqui Honess-martin’s medical drama continues, deftly melding doctors Maryam (Parminder Nagra), Helen (Lisa Mcgrillis) and Catherine’s (Lara Pulver) work stories with their friendships and the challenges of being a working mother. There’s some sparky dialogue; when Maryam learns she is under investigation over a patient’s death, Catherine’s pithy response is: “We’ve all killed someone… doesn’t make us Harold Shipman.”
