First Looks From New Sally Wainwright Drama 'Riot Women'

Tamsin Greig and Joanna Scanlan are ready to rock in the first images of their new BBC/BritBox series ‘Riot Women’.

In the six-part drama, from Sally Wainwright, creator of “Happy Valley,” five middle-aged women form a punk rock band and compete in a local talent show, giving them an outlet about their demanding jobs, pushy parents and demanding children. and annoying partners.

“As the story progresses, it’s more than just music that connects them; “A very powerful, long-buried secret begins to emerge – a secret that unexpectedly entangles Kitty and Beth, the two unlikely creative masterminds behind the band, in a complex triangle – and threatens to tear everything apart,” the logline reads.

Rosalie Craig, Lorraine Ashbourne, Amelia Bullmore, Taj Atwal, Chandeep Uppal and Macy Jacob-Seelochan also star. ARXX has written original songs for the show.

“I have a whole new excitement about the show as we put it together in the edit, and I can’t wait to share it with everyone!” said Wainwright, who creates, writes, directs and executive produces the series.

The series is produced by Drama Republic, owned by Mediawan (“One Day”), for the BBC and BritBox. The BBC will air the series on linear and iPlayer in the UK at the end of this year, while BritBox has the US and Canadian rights.
