ITV Choice (DStv 123) will screen the
darkly witty and gripping four-part drama, Flesh
and Blood, on Monday April 13, 2020, at 20h00.
The film features an all-star cast
including Imelda Staunton (Maleficent,
Paddington, Harry Potter), Francesca Annis (Home Fires, Cranford), Russell Tovey (Years and Years, Quantico, Being Human) and Stephen Rea (War and Peace, The Honourable Woman, The
Stranger).
Three adult siblings are thrown into
disarray when their recently widowed mother Vivien (Annis) declares she’s in
love with a new man, Mark (Rea). As she nears her 70th birthday, the siblings’
suspicions are heightened when retired GP Mark sweeps their mother off her
feet, shifting her priorities away from her children. Years of secrets, lies,
rivalries and betrayals come to the surface and threaten to blow apart everything
they’ve held dear. Exploring family dynamics and modern relationships,
Flesh
and Blood proves we can never really know what’s
going on behind closed doors. The drama will also be available for catch up on
DStv Now.
