NEW DRAMA
Y Golau
Sunday, 9pm, S4C
Fresh from winning a Leading Actress BAFTA for her role in film After Love, Joanna Scanlan is taking another departure from her comedy roots by playing a grieving Welsh mum in six-part psychological thriller Y Golau on S4C.
The drama comes from the team behind Keeping Faith and is similarly filmed in both Welsh and English, with the English version, entitled The Light in the Hall, being shown on C4 later this year.
The Welsh noir thriller sees Scanlan star as Sharon, whose 15-year-old daughter Ela was murdered 18 years ago.
The culprit was local man Joe Pritchard (played by Game of Thrones villain Iwan Rheon), who was jailed for the crime. But with nobody, and Pritchard suffering from dissociative amnesia, meaning he has no memory of the murder, Sharon continues to struggle under the weight of unanswered questions – which only intensify when Pritchard is released on parole.
