The Other Wife!

You can barely turn on the TV these days without spotting the formidable Keeley Hawes starring in a major new drama series.

As one of our leading television actresses, she has enchanted us as matriarcz Louisa Durrell in The Durrells and gripped us with her performance as Home Secretary in Bodyguard.

She admits the plot of her latest TV drama, a three-part BBC1 series called Mrs Wilson, sounded very far-fetched when she first read the script. Yet it’s based on a shocking true story!

Ruth Wilson, best known for playing Alice Morgan in Luther and Alison Bailey in The Affair, takes the leading role as this remarkable story is that of her real-life grandmother, Alison Wilson.

Following the death of her husband, young Alison is stunned when a woman named Dorothy turns up on her doorstep claiming to be “the real” Mrs Wilson.

Alison is determined to prove the validity of her own marriage to Alec – played by Iain Glen – but is instead led into a world of disturbing secrets.
