Episode 2
News of the women's disappearances puts Dot's dull existence into sharp relief.
Cottonopolis is an ambitious new, 6 part drama series spread across Woman's Hour all this week and linked to the Afternoon Play next Monday.
The series unfolds as 6, linked, personal stories, that each explore what happens when fear changes people's behaviour; a fear is created by a growing media frenzy.
Today's drama follows Hospital Cleaner Dot, who is moved to drastic measures, as the disappearance of a 3rd woman in Manchester, puts her own dull existence into sharp relief.
Created by Nick Leather and today's episode is written by Michelle Lipton
