Charlie Brooks plays a woman terrorised by her toxic husband in gripping new thriller Lie With Me
NEW DRAMA
Lie With Me
Mon-Thu, Channel 5 HD, 9 pm
Best known for playing evil Janine Butcher in EastEnders, actor Charlie Brooks is at the center of high drama this week when she stars in Channel 5’s compelling new thriller Lie With Me.
Airing over four nights, it tells the story of British woman Anna and her husband Jake, played by Australian actor Brett Tucker, who relocate from England to Jake’s native Australia for a fresh start after infidelity rocks their marriage.
To help with childcare, the couple hire a young live-in nanny, Becky (Phoebe Roberts), to look after their two small children, and Becky and Anna soon form a bond when Anna confides her deepest fears – she thinks Jake’s cheating again.
However, Becky isn’t the innocent stranger she appears to be. What follows is a tangled web of secrets, lies and betrayal – with deadly consequences.
We asked Brooks, 40, to tell us more about her role…
What can we expect from Lie With Me?
