The surreal new show tells the story of Susan and Christopher Edwards, a couple who were sentenced to life in prison for murders that remained undiscovered for 15 years.
Olivia Colman:
“I heard about it because Ed’s been working on it for about five years! I think there was a long read in. He heard about the case and contacted Susan’s solicitor Darrell Ennis-Gayle [named Douglas in the show]. He put Ed in touch with the barrister who said, ‘It’s funny that you’ve got in touch. Her hearing is next week. Do you want to come?’ Then, he got slightly obsessed with the story. The sexual abuse was not really permitted in the case, which is ridiculous.
Was there ever a hesitation when it came to making the show darkly comic, considering it’s a true story?the true story. There’s a big dollop of artistic licence. If it was a more recent crime, it would be harder and irresponsible to make it really funny. Also, I think humans just use humour to cope with tragedy.”: “No doubt, there will be some people who say, ‘I’m not quite sure this is the right tone for telling such a story,’ or that it’s too soon. But, I think it’s perfectly appropriate.
