'The Cry': Who is responsible for baby Noah's disappearance in Episode 1?
A Reddit user suggests an unexpected name as guilty in Noah's murder case and it can lead to an explanation on why the murder was committed
When Jenna Coleman's character, Joanna, appears in the first episode of BBC One's adaptation of Helen Fitzgerald's 2013 novel, 'The Cry', she is seen standing in a trial. The strange expression on her face is neither of victory or defeat, it suggests a state of relief in a situation when Joanna should clearly be terrified of what has happened. However, she is not, and as she explains to her therapist, it seems that the young mother has been maintaining two faces all along.
Following the plight of the young mother, 'The Cry' deals with her eventual fall into the dark pits of postpartum depression. Throughout the first episode, Joanna is seen struggling to keep her baby boy, Noah, quiet.
