saving grace

Her saving grace, she explained, was West Midlands Police's Offending to Recovery programme.

The acting is a saving grace, especially Edgar-Jones’ commitment to nuance and Poulter’s refreshingly shaded Lee, whose depth of awareness at a critical moment is a believable surprise, beautifully handled by the actor.

Perhaps unknowingly she has helped others find their voice too, such as Kitty who described Jessie as her "saving grace".

But for its throng of faults, the movie does sport a critical saving grace that keeps it from being completely unwatchable: its achingly human star.

But it's been welcomed by south London rapper Still Shadey who tells Newsbeat music was a "saving grace" and a spark "for something positive" when he was growing up.
