I saw this drama on BBC four a short while ago, and now I feel I must write a short review.
With poetry by Simon Armitage, Black roses tells the story of Sophie Lancaster, A young girl brutally murdered for being a Goth.
I have to say that this is a masterpiece,one of the best 45 minutes of television I have seen.
Sophie, and her mother Sylvia were brilliantly portrayed by Rachel Austen and Julie Hesmondhalgh respectively.
My heart go out to the mother and other relatives of Miss Lancaster who lost her life in the most brutal way.
It really is very sad that it did take such a tragedy to inspire such a masterpiece as Black Roses. Director Susan Roberts did above a first class job.
I assure you it is not my intention to undermine the events which inspired this work.
I'm guessing the family of Sophie have seen Black Roses, but if any of them haven't I strongly recommend seeking it out.
