Too Close

In the gripping British psychological drama *Too Close* (also known as *Under the Skin*), the boundaries between healer and patient begin to blur in a high-stakes battle of wits. The story centers on Dr. Emma Robertson, a dedicated forensic psychiatrist tasked with a challenging assignment: assessing the sanity of Connie Mortensen. Connie, a woman once described as a "yummy mummy," stands accused of a heinous crime—an act of attempted murder that has left the public and legal system reeling. However, the case is far from straightforward. Connie maintains that she cannot remember a single detail regarding the incident, leaving Dr. Robertson to navigate a labyrinth of fragmented memories and unsettling behavior. As the two women are drawn into an intense, claustrophobic confrontation, the professional distance between them begins to erode. Dr. Robertson must determine if Connie is genuinely suffering from memory loss or if something more calculated is at play. Featuring powerhouse performances from Emily Watson and Denise Gough—both of whom earned BAFTA TV Award nominations for their roles—this three-part miniseries is a tense exploration of trauma, perception, and the dark secrets hidden beneath the surface of a seemingly perfect life. Will Dr. Robertson uncover the truth, or will she become the next casualty of Connie’s complex reality?
