Episode 4 - We Need To Talk About Rosie
Picking up Rosie (Miley Locke) from school, Si (David Tennant) is told that the staff have noticed some bruising on her sides and legs which can only have happened over the weekend.
Si becomes increasingly paranoid, especially when a horribly formal letter tells them social services will be making an imminent visit. Convinced that an investigation will spread to all aspects of their parenting, Si and Em (Jessica Hynes) nervously await the arrival of the social worker.
In the early timeline, Si and Em are thrilled when Rosie takes her first ever steps, fulfilling a milestone they didn’t think she’d ever reach. The initial joy gives way to concern, as a mobile Rosie proves to be very accident prone, especially when the nursery find it increasingly hard to balance Rosie’s needs with those of the other children.
