No Return fans give verdict on episode 1: "Sheridan Smith smashing it again"
The four-parter premiered on ITV last night, with Sheridan Smith starring as the mother whose son is accused of sexual assault.
Sheridan Smith was back on our screens last night in the premiere of No Return – ITV's latest drama written by The Stranger's Danny Brocklehurst.
Smith, who recent starred in Channel 5's The Teacher, plays Kathy, a mother on holiday with her family in Turkey when her 16-year-old son Noah (Louis Ashbourne Serkis) is accused of sexual assault.
With the four-parter getting off to a dramatic start, viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the first episode, with many praising Smith's performance as a mother dealing with her worst nightmare.
"Brilliant," one fan wrote on the site. "Sheridan Smith smashing it again!" Meanwhile, another viewer declared on Twitter that they "loved" the series.
Some viewers couldn't wait until next week for episode two to arrive, with one admitting that they'd binged three of the four episodes.
"I'm really enjoying it, have watched 3 out of the 4 tonight," they said.
