Accused: JACK'S STORY

SINOPSIS

Peter Cartwright does his best to help his sons Stephen and Dom come to terms with the fast-approaching death of their mother, but while he appreciates the palliative care nurse's aid at this time, not everyone is as welcoming. Stephen suspects her motives and his misgivings intensify after the teenager's mum passes away, leading to a deterioration in his mental health. Fuelled by his anxiety over the welfare of Dom and troubled by the fact his father appears to have put his wife's demise behind him, he goes on to commit a serious offence. Drama, co-written by Jimmy McGovern, starring Robert Sheehan, John Bishop, Sheridan Smith and Josh Bolt, and featuring Alastair Campbell.
