In Sally Wainwright's inspirational drama 'Riot Women', the superb Joanna Scanlan leads a gang of middle-aged women forming a band and having a blast
In the process of killing herself, Beth (Joanna Scanlan) finds she’s interrupted by a series of urgent phone calls. First, her brother, protesting plans to buy an annuity for their mother, and then, mercifully, her friend Jess (Lorraine Ashbourne) asking whether she wants to join a rock band. “Why?” she asks. “For fun,” Jess replies. And so begins Riot Women, the latest chapter of Sally Wainwright’s televisual diorama of life in the Calder Valley.
