The Prisoner
The Big Society gives Clare new challenges. Can her relationship with Brian survive? Starring Sally Phillips. From 2011.
Sally Phillips returns as Clare Barker the social worker who has all the right jargon but never a practical solution.
A control freak, Clare likes nothing better than interfering in other people's lives on both a professional and personal basis. Clare is in her 30s, white, middle class and heterosexual, all of which are occasional causes of discomfort to her.
Each week we join Clare in her continued struggle to control both her professional and private life.
Clare is struggling to come to terms with Brian's infidelity.
Will their relationship survive?
In today's Big Society there are plenty of challenges out there for an involved, caring social worker. Or even Clare.
