's lives are hard and hopeless and they grift as best they can to get by. The gloom extends to the locations too, from the grey and empty streets of Londonto the cold and desolate Brighton beach.
And yet despite the despair and the lengths that street worker Kelly (played quite brilliantly by Lorraine Stanley) has to go toto simply survive, she discovers a streak of maternal compassion and morality when she takes the lost 12 year-old Joanne (a stunning debut by Georgia Groome) under her wing as the girls go on the run from some very bad men.

My husband & I have travelled on Eurostar a number of times now, both from Waterloo & St Pancras, and have loved it every time. The new terminal at St Pancras is a particularly beautiful place to start your journey, and much more convenient if you're travelling from anywhere north of London (which cover of Britain is)
By far the most civilised way to get to mainland Europe, there are no ridiculous queues for check-in/ security, you are not asked to turn up hours before you travel and you have reasonable legroom & decent food on-board. As a bonus, Eurostar is now making all journeys carbon-neutral.
The new "Availability Calendar" feature on the website allows you to check for the cheapest tickets in any given week, which can be as little as £59 return between London & Paris.
We're already looking forward to our next trip ...
