- WORDS: CAREN CLARK, SIMON TIMBLICK

Dark revelations and the fallout from a devastating scandal bring upheaval for two mothers living on an exclusive estate in BBC1 drama Wild Cherry.

The six-part series is created and written by Nicôle Lecky and is set in the fictional enclave of Richford Lake, where author and influencer Juliet Lonsdale (Eve Best), who comes from a wealthy background, and her friend, self-made businesswoman Lorna Gibbons (Carmen Ejogo), enjoy seemingly idyllic lives with their families.

Juliet's confident daughter Allegra (Amelia May) and Lorna's smart child Grace (Imogen Faires) are also best pals, but trouble brews at the teenagers' private school when the pair of them are accused of making an inappropriate video.
