As Channel 4 show, Deadwater Fell, reaches a brutal conclusion, Daisy Coulam explains why the subjects it raises are so important. CONTAINS SPOILERS
There are no black-eyes with coercive control. No bruises or broken bones. It’s so hard to spot that often people in controlling relationships don’t even recognise that it’s happening to them.
To accurately portray their relationship, we spent a lot of time with our Forensic Psychology Consultant Coral Dando – a former police officer and Professor of Psychology at the University of Westminster: an expert on coercive behaviour. Before talking to her, I thought I had an idea of what control looked like – the husband choosing what the wife wears, opening her post, listening in on her phone calls.
Across the episodes, we see Kate obediently swallowing tablets - medication that Tom gives her. She admits later that she has no idea what she’s taking – Tom has taken control of her physical and mental well-being.
