[QUOTE="Long Lashes, post: 366134, member: 41"] Thanks for posting about this drama [USER=21]@Barbara Fan[/USER] . I did see this series advertised and it didn't really grab me until I read your thread on here. The fact that this was a true story made it even more heart wrenching. Éanna Hardwicke was excellent as Ben .. who came across as well-spoken, charming, good mannered and thoughtful , but in reality he clearly has no conscience or empathy and I can't get over how he amused himself by tormenting and gas lighting others. Timothy Spalls character Peter was especially vulnerable as he was desperately lonely, how incredibly sad it was to see him being played by Ben and to see Aunty-Anne’s health and mind deteriorating was hard to witness (brilliantly played by the wonderful Anne Reid) I shudder to think how Ben was working in a care home and what his future plans were. If anyone is interested there is a good documentary about Ben Field in more detail on Channel Four. [/QUOTE]
