Perfect lives built on lies.

Breathless is a six-part ITV drama starting at 9pm this Thursday (October 10).

Set in 1961, it is stylish, compelling and one of the best new drama series you will see this year.

The cast – led by Jack Davenport – doing full justice to top class writing, directing and photography.

Not forgetting the production team behind some memorable costumes, sets, locations and all round attention to period detail and feel.

Or the Anne Dudley soundtrack and a collection of inspired episode music choices.

Drawing you into a pre-swinging sixties’ world where everything may not be as it first seems.

I was asked to write the interviews for ITV’s press pack / production notes.

Denise (Lorraine Bruce), Jamie (Matthew Lewis), Bob (Timothy Spall, Leanne (Joanna Page) and Stuart (Matthew McNulty).

“THERE’S a lot of worries about at the moment.

“I can look at poverty and wealth. That’s what this series gives me the ability to be able to do.”

Can money bring you happiness?

Writer Kay Mellor has something to say about that in BBC1 drama The Syndicate, which begins at 9pm tonight (Tuesday March 27).
