Best Interests: A Family's Battle for Marnie | Leeds News

Description

When your child’s life hangs in the balance, what do you do? In this gripping BBC drama now on Netflix, Michael Sheen and Sharon Horgan play a couple torn apart by a medical nightmare: their 13-year-old daughter, Marnie, has a rare, devastating form of muscular dystrophy. As doctors push to withdraw care, the family is forced into a High Court battle that tests every ounce of love, faith, and moral courage. With a 96% Rotten Tomatoes score and hailed as “powerful and heartbreaking,” this four-episode series from writer Jack Thorne doesn’t just tell a story—it forces you to feel, question, and reflect. It’s a raw, unflinching look at what families endure when medicine meets emotion—and why some choices are too heavy to bear alone.
