Keeping Faith (BBC Wales-S4C 2017, Eve Myles, Matthew Gravelle)

The eight-part series starts production this month and will premiere this autumn as Un Bore Mercher on S4C, followed by an English language version called Keeping Faith (Un Bore Mercher in Welsh) on BBC One Wales early next year.

Filmed back-to-back in Welsh and English, the series tells the story of lawyer, wife and mother Faith (Myles) as she fights to find the truth behind the sudden disappearance of her husband. She comes to discover that her beautiful, idyllic home town, set on the estuary, harbours many dark secrets that threaten the lives of Faith and her family. Faith’s ordeal transforms her from a stay-at-home, fun-loving and carefree mother to detective, action hero and lover. She takes risks and gambles and finds a new inner strength.

Filmed on location in the Vale of Glamorgan, Carmarthenshire and around Laugharne, with studio scenes recorded in Bridgend.
