    James and Sarah are exceptional!! They were brilliant. Such the right characters for happy valley. Best drama ever! Based on how one event leads to another. It had to be this ending because the emotions were so high and he knew he'd be banged up for life in prison [in the drama]. Brilliant, just brilliant, I wish these actors many years of success!! Bless them both!

    One of the best dramas to hit the tvforvyears. Brilliant storyline and out of this world acting. James, the scene in the kitchen with Cathetine had me first hating Tommy, then really feeling for him and horror at the way he set himself on fire. You're a first class actor
