The Girls Who Came To Stay (2006 Philip Martin)

The lives of Alun Armstrong and Lindsey Coulson (Eastenders) - and to some extent their daughter Samantha Robinson - are disrupted when two Bellarusian girls come for a month to recuperate from Chernobyl. Armstrong in particular starts to feel for the one from a loveless family and starts to think of keeping her.

TV movie from ITV benefits from particularly good music, which is credited to Nick Hooper, I presume the same one that went on to write Harry Potter scores; Tat Radcliffe's hand-held stuff is really quite distracting.
