Genre: Thriller, Drama

Angela Black

Downton Abbey star Joanne Froggatt stars in this psychological drama in which she takes on the role of Angela, a suburban housewife whose seemingly perfect life isn't all it appears to be.

Angela's life appears idyllic: a lovely house in suburban London, days working volunteer shifts at a dogs home, two beautiful sons and a charming, hard-working husband – Olivier.

However, beneath this façade of charmed domesticity, Angela is a victim of domestic violence.

Olivier is controlling and brutal; but Angela loves him and he's the father of her children.

She can't leave him, even though she has threatened to countless times.

So she covers her bruises with makeup and fabricates lies to explain away her missing teeth.

Until, one day, Angela is approached by Ed – a Private Investigator - and he smashes her already strained domestic life to pieces.

Ed reveals Olivier's deepest secrets to Angela, and she is faced with horrifying truths about her husband and his betrayals.

But can Angela trust Ed? And what truths will be revealed in the ferocious fight between Angela and her husband?

With one encounter, Angela's life switches from school runs and the dogs home to private detectives and buried secrets.

This is a Hitchcockian thriller that follows one woman as she risks everything she holds dear to fight back against the man who has suppressed and tormented her for most of her adult life.

The Time Traveler's Wife

An intricate and magical love story, adapted by Steven Moffat from the novel by Audrey Niffenegger.

The Time Traveler's Wife tells the story of Clare and Henry, and a marriage with a problem... time travel.

Rose Leslie stars as Clare Abshire. She's fiery, clever and unstoppable — and for most of her life she's had an amazing secret.

Since she was six years old, Clare has had an imaginary friend: a kind and funny man, sometimes old, sometimes young, who appears in the woods behind her house and tells her tales of the future.

Visits from the mysterious Henry are the bright spots in the tedium of her childhood.

As the years pass and she grows into a beautiful young woman, she starts to realise her friend is not imaginary — he's a time traveler, visiting from the future.

And he's not just from any old future, he's from her future. Clare has a literal date with destiny.

One day she's going to meet a young man called Henry DeTamble, whom she'll know very well but who won't recognise her at all, and she will become the time traveler's wife.

Theo James is Henry DeTamble, and since he was eight years old, Henry's been a time traveler.

It's not a superpower, it's a condition; he can't help it.

Sometimes, when Henry is stressed or worried — and sometimes for no reason at all — he loses his grip on the current moment and falls naked into the past or the future.

One minute he's making breakfast, the next he's naked at a hoedown in 1973.

He can be stuck there for any amount of time, he never knows.

His life is a rollercoaster of constant danger and white-knuckle survival.

Until one day he meets a beautiful redhead in the library where he works.

Her name is Clare Abshire, and although he's never seen her before, she claims to have known him all her life.

Finally his curse has given him something good, and Clare and Henry are about to have the time of their lives.
