Sheffield and stars Emma Rigby, Polly Walker, Pippa Haywood and Natalie Gavin, supported by actors including Jonas Armstrong (Robin Hood) and Iain Glen (Downton Abbey). The show follows four very different women struggling to cope with having a loved one serving time in prison. Hollyoaks beauty Emma Rigby plays pregnant Gemma, whose perfect life comes crashing down when armed police storm her house and arrest her husband, Steve (Jonas Armstrong), on suspicion of murder. Alone, scared
and submerged into an unknown world, Gemma struggles to make sense of the bewildering judicial system but she’s certain of one thing; her husband’s innocence. When Gemma visits Steve for the first time, she meets three other women: Francesca (Polly Walker), a career criminal’s wife, Lou (Natalie Gavin), a drug dealing young mum, and Harriet (Pippa Haywood), a visitor who sits outside the prison – never venturing in. Each have their own story, their own secrets... Commented Andy
