“Can we talk about money?” Alice says in her grief support group. “Someone you love dies and you think it’s going to be about gut-wrenching absence – and it is – but it’s just as much about the bloody bank and bureaucracy and stupid missing passwords. And if you weren’t married, and they die suddenly without a will and with secrets and a messed up business and a family of misfits…”

Everyone in the group agrees with Alice about finances and admin being something they had to deal with. But it’s just not something you’re “meant” to think about after someone dies – because there’s a fear of judgment that you should be too consumed with grief to even think about dealing with that side of things.

And that’s what this series seems to be about: understanding that grief is totally unique for everyone. Perhaps this isn’t the most gripping drama with a super juicy plot, but it does do a great job of exploring something that needs to be talked about more.

You can watch the next episode of Finding Alice next Sunday at 9pm on ITV.
