Five Days: The Train (2007)

From Acorn TV:

Five days can change a life forever in this acclaimed BBC serial. Suranne Jones (Scott & Bailey) and BAFTA nominee David Morrissey (The Walking Dead) are police officers investigating an apparent suicide that may be connected to a baby found in a hospital lavatory. Also starring Matthew McNulty (The Terror) and Bernard Hill (The Lord of the Rings films), this is “drama at its best” (TV Times, UK).

From Acorn TV you can stream the five episodes of Series 1. Each episode lasts about an hour.

Out of 120 days, this series selects 5 notable days in the continuing story of a train bridge suicide, finding an abandoned baby’s father, the emotional strain on the baby’s immediate caretaker who wishes to adopt the baby, and a young Muslim possibly connected to terrorism.  In such circumstances not everyone can have their wishes fulfilled.

Worthwhile break from violent TV series.
