Holding On
1997–2004, English, on BBC Two. Created by Tony Marchant.
London will chew you up and spit you out - if you give it a chance
The lives of a seemingly unconnected group of Londoners are strangely affected by the murder of a young woman. While some are able to take a newfound hope from the remains of the tragedy, others, including food critic Gary Rickey, simply watch on as despair begins to unravel in the light of the aftermath.
