Saying It Out Loud

== Saying It Out Loud ==
Saying It Out Loud is a one-off drama series based on a true story. Nicole Rayner (Michelle Keegan) was eight years old when her father Brian was diagnosed with an almost fatal brain tumour, but a place on clinical trial saved his life, but at a cost. The treatment left Brian both mentally and physically disabled and doctors didn't think he would make it, however Brian's survival instincts kicked and against all medical evidence he survived an extra thirteen years.  
Until one afternoon Nicole returns home on the last day of her first year at university to the news that Brian is suffering from lung cancer and it has already advanced to his brain and this time there is nothing they can do. Saying It Out Loud will explore from that day which changes Nicole's life forever and is sure to be powerful piece of drama.
