The Town is a three-part contemporary drama starring BAFTA winner Andrew Scott alongside an outstanding ensemble cast including Julia McKenzie, Charlotte Riley, Gerard Kearns, Kelly Adams and Martin Clunes. The first television series by Laurence Olivier award-winning playwright Mike Bartlett, The Town follows a shocking incident within an otherwise normal family.

Mark Nicholas returns to the town where he grew up to find his grandmother Betty is now living in his childhood bedroom and he barely knows his teenage sister Jodie. Mark is drawn back into the life he left behind. Hardest of all is meeting his first love Alice, now married with a child. Thrust into the complicated lives of his former neighbours, it’s not surprising there are awkward moments as Mark becomes reacquainted with his past, including his old friends ‘down the pub’ Lucy, Carly and Jeff.

Mark struggles to decide whether he should stay permanently to be with his family. But a new life is difficult to build in the place you used to call home and now feels like you barely know it.
