But this year, as they come together again, everything is different. Sylvie’s now single and loving life, Natasha’s hiding a desperate financial situation, Beth is barely keeping her life together and Annabelle is, well... dead. When Annabelle’s widower Charlie (Jamie Bamber), arrives with a new woman in tow, Beth tries to be happy for them, but something doesn’t sit right. Charlie’s new girlfriend Jade (Katie Clarkson-Hill), looks exactly like Annabelle. Beth’s plans to have a great summer are quickly scuppered by Charlie’s odd behaviour, and her suspicion that there is more to Annabelle’s death is heightened. With lies coming to light and evidence building, the women work together and against each other to unravel the mystery and bring the culprit to justice. But with corrupt officials, drug cartels and career criminals closer to home than ever expected, have they bitten off more than they can chew? Ben Willbond stars as the eldest Morgan brother and Beth’s husband Frankie, Jonathan Forbes as Natasha’s husband Sean, Catriona Chandler as Annabelle, Louis Boyer as local businessman Luca Vella and Ajay Chhabra as consulate official Vinay Taneja.

  FIRST CHANNEL 5 IMAGES  

FROM THE TEACHER SERIES SEASON 2

After the ones from The Hardacre period set series, we have the first images from the second season of Channel 5's THE TEACHER which will, as an anthology series not follow Sheridan Smith's character from the first season, but  Dani (Kara Tointon), a teacher who loves her job. She’s a real mentor and inspiration to her students, but what she lacks is a properly functioning marriage with real intimacy and mutual desire. This leads her into an impulsive affair with a fellow colleague that at first answers all her needs, but soon spirals out of control. When a pupil goes missing on a school trip, Dani rightly blames herself for being too easily distracted. When things start to take a sinister turn she is forced to lie, and quickly finds her life falling to pieces. She risks everything to right the wrongs that she has, in part, been responsible for. Will Mellor and Emmett Scanlan will play her husband and her lover in the four parter.
