8/10
Very watchable.

A Mother's Son is a very good two part drama series. It deals with the murder of a young girl, the prime suspect, a young man, who's mother had her doubts.

The premise is a very good one, you have the doubts of mother Rosie, and you have the conflict of the two aspects of the family.

It's a good, solid mystery, it doesn't really have the twists or any suspense, it relies more on doubt, and the conflict that's arisen in the family.

I'm not sure if anyone else did, but I got a Broadchurch vibe, particularly in the early stages, the small gripe I had was the involvement of the Police, they were there one minute.....

Very well acted, Clunes, Norris and McGann are all great. Young Alexander Arnold is terrific as Jamie.

Well worth a watch, 8/10.
