Trivia
Out of respect for the community of Dewsbury Moor who had been through the trauma of searching for Shannon Matthews, this dramatisation was not filmed on The Moorside estate where Shannon and Karen Matthews lived, but instead on a similar estate in Halifax.

True life story of missing girl Shannon Matthews reported missing by her mum Karen . Karen's best mate played superbly by Sheridan Smith starts the local community campaign in the search for missing Shannon . We all know the story of this case but it also shows the vulnerability of Karen Matthews in which she was in a way made to do what she did . But it is a brilliant made drama .
