In Stan’s new six-part drama, Brooke Satchwell delivers a painfully good performance as Lillian, a distraught widow whose centre of gravity – entire footing in the universe, in fact – has been thrown off by the death of her fiance.
You never doubt her anguish, nor that haunted look in her heavy-lidded eyes, pressed down by grief and the unfairness of a world that never follows a just moral rhythm, tossing her around like dust in a draft.
