The Moorside
In February 2008, nine-year-old Shannon Matthews is reported missing. A frantic search quickly becomes a murder inquiry. Led by Julie Bushby, the community rallies around Shannon's grief-stricken mother Karen, determined to find her daughter and show that, although she's from a poor background, Shannon's life is as important as any other. As hope fades and doubts about Karen arise, Shannon is found — with a man her mother knows. Who is this man, and what is his connection to Karen?
A haunting British miniseries following the desperate search for missing Shannon Matthews, told through the eyes of the community torn apart by her disappearance. Arlo captures the raw emotion and moral ambiguity as a mother's quest for answers unravels into something far more complex and tragic.
