Channel 5 has released first images from their new four part mystery series THE FORTUNE (previously known as The Family Secret) that asks:

enormous inheritance by a man she has neither met nor heard of
before.
Her life starts to disintegrate as she becomes embroiled in the world of The Worrall Family. The patriarch Martin Worrall (Denis Lawson),
is head
of a family which is bound in past secrets. As Amanda’s story
leads her further and further into the Northumbrian countryside, she
begins to unravel the

down. Rebecca Front stars as Martin’s wife Fiona, with Callum Woodhouse as his son Anthony,Stephen
Tompkinson as farm worker Boots Maddison, Paula Wilcox as Amanda’s mother Linda, Danielle Waltersas Amanda’s best friend Sandy, and Nina

Bet it's loaded with dramas. Channel 5 seems to have a few of series that I would enjoy.
ReplyDeletep.s It's still ralative cool here and RAINING...sitting here watching The Practice and I still need to cover myself with a blanket.
It is interesting that after the downfall of BBC due to their overwokeness, Channel 5 has taken over the spot of Britain's best channel. ITV is also lost its mojo, so it is just Channel 5 and 4 now offering some comfort for the viewers.
DeleteIt is tropical here, almost 30C today, I will open all my windows and balconies in an hour to cool down the headquarters over night, it is the only way to survive the daily heat tomorrow, but they say we should have a rain too after two months of not seeing any later this week. Fingers crossed, most of our garden is dead already and the summer hasn't even started yet.
I don't know why, Dezmond, but I have never been fond of the drama genre...however, I did love The Waltons TV series, which I think is considered a drama.
ReplyDeleteNow if only someone I didn't know would leave me a huge inheritance too, that would be awesome. lol
