Synopsis
Broken (2017) is a BBC One drama you can watch online on iFILM, starring Sean Bean as Father Michael Kerrigan — a Catholic priest running a working-class parish in northern England, still carrying damage from a childhood that never quite let him go.
His congregation brings him the full weight of ordinary life in crisis. A single mother of three is drowning. A woman waits for her son to be released from a psychiatric unit. A constable cracks under the pressure of his own conscience. Kerrigan tries to hold them all together while quietly falling apart himself.
Writer Jimmy McGovern — behind Cracker and The Street — builds the series on the grinding reality of poverty and faith in post-industrial Britain, not on dramatic twists. Sean Bean's performance is among the quietest and most controlled of his career. Stream Broken (2017) online on iFILM.
