Gerard Kearns is devastating as footballer Andy “Woody” Woodward in this brutal dramatisation of how coach Barry Bennell (a stomach-churning Jonas Armstrong) sexually abused Woody and other teenagers under his care for years. The feature-length episode is at times nearly too distressing to watch, but this bold approach adds to the power of Woody’s bravery in speaking out, putting his perpetrator behind bars and encouraging others to expose the hidden horrors of football.
