If you are after an intriguing, easy to watch, addictive four part mini-series, look no further than, Lie With Me.
Network 10 commenced airing this back in November, 2021. The Australian/British television drama series aired in the UK ahead of the country it was filmed in. Funny that.
The four parter centres on a British woman and her husband seeking a fresh start in Australia after infidelity threatened their marriage. They hire a young local nanny who isn't as innocent as she appears with deadly consequences.
Starring UK soap star, Charlie Brooks as Anna Fallmont, Aussie turned US star Brett Tucker (Station 19, Mistresses and more) as Jake Fallmont. Alongside Phoebe Roberts as Becky Hart, Alfie Gledhill as Liam Henderson the incredibly handsome gardener with smaller roles for Nadine Garner and Bert La Bonté as Phil.
I watched this on Paramount Plus, however I am sure it airs on the free Ten Play. Maybe with some annoying ad's.
This really though is Channel Ten's drama at it's best. They have had some seriously good short run series of late. The Secret She Keeps, Secrets and Lies (ok this is older, but it was great!) and the camp Playing For Keeps.
Channel Ten are kinda like the third wheel out of the two more powerful commercial networks in Australia. I am though enjoying Paramount Plus after they scrapped the shit Ten All Access, similar to its parent companies, CBS All Access. Strange still that Why Women Kill (an original) can be accessed free on SBS. Oh well.
Back to Lie with Me, this is an easy day binge if you need a rest after the not so Hot Vax Summer. The heat is intense in Sydney right now, so go on, do yourself a favour and indulge in some local drama.
