Did anyone watch that new Aussie drama "Spirited"

Holy cow! The main character reminded me of myself Soooo much. The way she was so badly treated by her husband, just like my ex use to speak and treat me, the way people who have no right sticking their nose into her private business do, the way the husbands friends treated her, OMG it was just ALL there. I felt quite shaken up after I watched it.

There is a forum for topics like this.

Ooops, sorry....

What is it about?

Spirited Synopsis
Claudia Karvan as Suzy Darling
SUZY DARLING is a dentist. She is an emotionally ret*d rationalist who moves with her head in the clouds not dreaming but labelling weather patterns. She has moved so single-mindedly through life that she hasn’t stopped to smell the roses - and it has worked up to a point. Her life appears to be successful and fulfilled. A champion gymnast as a child, it taught her self-discipline and honed her competitive spirit; she believes she was a whisker away from going to the Olympics and she can still turn a somersault if she feels the urge. She married a rich & interesting entrepreneur (Steve) and has a lovely house and two beautiful children (Verity & Elvis). She is an excellent dentist, whose university degrees hang alongside her old gymnastics trophies & medals. But her heart has become ossified & her spirit condemned to pace about in a smaller and smaller place as Suzy lives her life the way she imagines one should, and not as she truly desires.
