So sensitively handled
What a loss of such a beautiful soul. But I was so happy to say this was a very sensitive handled documentary and they were not just jumping on the bandwagon. My heart broke for all her loved ones whose life she enriched by being in. I found that her mums heart breaking was very hard to watch, and her sister they have lost on a chance to grow together as a family , her sister’s children will never know there auntie. Her mother will never get to hold Carolines children, I only saw her in a few programs but this toxic culture that we live in can not be sustained. When we realised this then maybe it will be a better place.
Sweet Caroline
Apart from when she won “Strictly Come Dancing” in 2014, I have never watched any TV programme on which the late Miss Flack appeared although my wife, with whom I watched this hour-long documentary, was / is a fan of the hit dating show “Love Island” which she presented. Nevertheless, I was intrigued to watch this sensitive tribute to her life and times which contained some surprising and of course sad admissions which went some way to perhaps explain why she took her own life a year ago in the wake of personal and professional setbacks she suffered at the time.On the surface a beautiful and successful woman, it was evident that underneath she was insecure and prone to fits of depression. Although latterly more attributable to her unhappy personal life where she couldn’t seem to settle down for long to a stable personal relationship with any of the boy-friends she encountered, it was made clear that in fact she had been psychologically troubled since her childhood. Although obviously from a loving family, as we see from the moving testimony of her mother and surviving twin sister, we learn that of the two sisters, she was the “glass half-empty” one and had self-confidence issues which would continue to haunt her even as she entered show-biz. There, her career experienced the natural series of ups and downs, from the highs of “Strictly” success, co-hosting the “X Factor” appendix show with singer Olly Murs and finally her perfect-fit job as the presenter of runaway hit “Love Island”, to the lows of the failure of her and Murs elevation to presenting the main “X Factor” show and of course, losing the “Love Island” gig in the aftermath of the highly publicised argument she had with her then boy-friend which resulted in her arrest for assault, an incident which for days fed front-page news headlines in the tabloid press (example – “Caroline Whack!”) and made her fodder for comedians who probably now regret their cheap one-liners (step forward, or rather step back, Graham Norton).
Making frequent use of family home movies showing her with her sister as two ordinary, happy, innocent kids, invariably doing their party-pieces to camera, the picture is drawn of an emotionally needy young woman who was a loving daughter, sister and friend but who seemed to long for the stability of a lasting, loving relationship to anchor her life.
There were many touching moments in the programme, from the testimony of her various showbiz connections, including her agents and celebrity friends like Murs and fellow-presenter Dermot O’Leary but more particularly from those who knew her best, her mother and sister. What I really didn’t appreciate at all was the amount of sheer bile and vitriol she experienced on social media from online trolls, with which we’re told, she was unhealthily obsessed.
With notably no contributions from any of the many boy-friends who flitted in and out of her life, including the final one, with whom she had the fateful argument on the night which effectively ended her career (triggered by her finding a text from another woman on his mobile phone), the picture is painted of a troubled woman who, seeing her successful career apparently in ruins, her demise luridly splashed in the daily papers and living away from her family alone in her London flat, felt the need to tragically take her own life.
The programme makes a strong case for supporting those we know and love who suffer from mental illness and more indirectly indicts the lack of policing of on-line hate crime and that old staple, the sensationalist and invasive excess of the tabloid press. I may not have been a fan or known much in advance about Miss Flack’s life and times but was certainly moved by this well-handled tribute to her.
