Executive Producers are Gardiner and Toby Bentley for Chapter One Pictures, Thorne for his indie One Shoe Films, and Lucy Richer for BBC One. The series will be produced by Abi Bach .Thorne said, “As a parent of a three year old I’ve looked at the cases in the media about ‘best interests’ with some fascination and a little dread.
BBC’s Wenger said, “This heartbreaking story delves deep into the inner turmoil these two parents experience when faced with their worst nightmare. Jack Thorne’s talent for tackling the most complex and challenging real life stories with consideration, wisdom and vision will make this a series to remember.””
Gardiner added, “We are delighted and proud that the first commission for Chapter One Pictures is a Jack Thorne project of such calibre, and thrilled for it to be on BBC One. Jack writes these important stories of our time with such compassion, wit and intelligence, it’ll be a privilege for us to help bring it to life.”
