Accused: Series 2 (2010)
Monday 3rd June 2013
In the docks of Jimmy McGovern's BAFTA Award winning second series of Accused, released on DVD on 5th August 2013 by Acorn Media, stands a sensational ensemble of British Acting talent. They are the innocent, the guilty and the somewhere in between.
Starring Olivia Colman (Broadchurch), Sean Bean (Game of Thrones), Sheridan Smith (Mrs Biggs), Anne Marie Duff (Parade's End), Anna Maxwell Martin (The Bletchley Circle) and Stephen Graham (Boardwalk Empire) and directed by David Blair (The Street, Accused) and Ashley Pearce (Downton Abbey).
These modern-day morality plays are fraught with emotion as they delve in to the tangled issues of gender stereotypes, a mother's unconditional love, familial grief and paranoia, as well as challenging the justice system itself. With cases of gang violence, murder, sexual assault and crimes of passion, are these everyday defendants the guilty or the victims?
