In the episode, Tennant's detective character is seen pouring a cup of tea from a cold teapot, putting it in the microwave and reheating it.

Suffice to say viewers were pretty outraged.

Julie Hesmonghalgh has been critically acclaimed for her performance as rape survivor Trish, who is trying to rebuild her life and engage Beth Latimer following her own personal tragedy, whilst also blaming herself for what happened at the party.
