Sharon Horgan stars alongside Michael Sheen, Alison Oliver, and Dublin teenager Niamh Moriarty in the BBC mini-series.

deals with hugely important subject matter, wherein mother Nikki is in court battling the doctors and her husband to keep her critically ill daughter Marnie alive. The series paints a gripping, intimate, and deeply moving portrait of a family driven apart when they’re forced to make a decision no parent would ever want to make.

According to the official synopsis, “Doctors believe it is in her best interests to be allowed to die, but her loving family disagree. And so begins a fight that will take them through every stage of a legal process, as they struggle to contemplate this huge decision.”, Horgan said that she initially shied away from the role, feeling at first reluctant to delve into the emotional depth of the character.

“It’s crucial to both writing and inhabiting people who feel real,” she explained. “If you want a truthful, believable piece of work, you have to embrace the fact that life always has moments of light and dark in it.”
