ITVX, from Thursday

As meet-cutes go, a suicide attempt and a heart attack takes some beating. This drama stars Katherine Parkinson and Youssef Kerkour as neighbours brought together when Kerkour’s Sam takes an overdose, only to be interrupted by the heart attack suffered by Anna (Parkinson). The ensuing ambulance-share is a little contrived but the two leads bring heart and sweetness to an awkward, tentative attraction. Their relationship is initially conducted as a series of evasions – Anna has given up on love, Sam on life itself – but it begins to blossom into something potentially redemptive.
