This looks right up my street

6 parts on Mon Tue wed for 2w

Channel 5 has announced that new mystery drama, The Wives, will start on Monday, September 16. Starring Jo Joyner, Tamzin Outhwaite, and Angela Griffin as sisters-in-law Beth, Sylvia and Natasha,

the six-part series follows the tumultuous aftermath of their sister-in-law Annabelle Morgan's disappearance during a family vacation in Malta.

As the story unfolds, viewers will see the characters' lives thrown into turmoil as Annabelle vanishes, leaving her husband Charlie and daughter Sky (www.walesonline.co.uk/all-about/sky) behind. With her phone discovered at a c
lifftop, authorities presume a fatal accident.

Fast-forwarding, the Morgans reconvene for a trip abroad, aiming to put the past behind them. Tensions surface when Charlie introduces his new, much younger girlfriend who bears an uncanny resemblance to the missing Annabelle

Doubt creeps in among the family members, leading Beth, Sylvia, and Natasha to question the nature of Annabelles disappearance and ponder if foul play was involved.

Resolving to uncover the truth, they embark on their own sleuthing mission.
In a gripping trailer for the show, confusion and suspicion mounts as Beth Morgan voices her disquiet: "Jade has showed up on the anniversary of Annabelle's death, wearing her clothes. It's just not normal! ", reports the Mirror (www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/channel-5-confirms-release-date-33631990)
.

Beth confesses to her family that she suspects Jade played a role in Annabelle's untimely end.

As they shadow Jade and Charlie across Malta, it becomes evident that secrets are being kept about the 'true' events of what transpired.

The Wives is a brand new six-part whodunnit style drama coming to Channel 5 in mid-September, with a star-studded cast including Jo Joyner, Tamzin Outhwaite, and Angela Griffin.

The series follows the Morgan family as they try to move on one year after the disappearance of a family member (Annabelle). Jo, Tamzin and Angela play three sisters-in-laws Beth, Sylvia and Natasha, as they attempt to piece together the shock disappearance of their other sister-in-law, Annabelle, in Malta.

This one looks good. Although the story sounds a bit familiar. Maybe it was a book?

Blondeshavemorefun · 13/09/2024 17:56

Oh maybe

Good Lord, this is awful.

LoulabellePeach · 16/09/2024 21:46

I am finding it really slow

lazymum99 · 16/09/2024 21:46

This is much worse than The Teacher. Is anything going to actually happen?

AnyFucker · 16/09/2024 21:50

I can’t decide which is worse… this or Nightsleeper 😊

SydneyCarton · 16/09/2024 21:53

I’m enjoying seeing realistic looking late 40s/early 50s actresses, but it is kind of slow.

friendlycat · 16/09/2024 21:57

Well it needs to get better that’s for sure.

redwinechocolateandsnacks · 16/09/2024 22:00

Six episodes..blimey

Blondeshavemorefun · 16/09/2024 22:16

I’m hoping things will pick up speed in the next episode 🤞

Frozenberries · 16/09/2024 23:55

Maybe it’ll get going…

LemongrassLollipop · 17/09/2024 00:39

Hmmm, lots of reference to Beth's allergy to mosquitos.

Wonder if she gets too close to the truth and someone tries to bump her off by replacing the bug spray with An Extremely Fast Acting Yet Unidentified But Easily Available Toxic Substance.

Teentrauma · 17/09/2024 07:28

So bad, it's good. Typical Channel 5 drama.

SydneyCarton · 17/09/2024 11:11

Good point @LemongrassLollipop , they did hammer it home. I didn’t think the marks on her arm really looked like mozzie bites and thought maybe the actress had really hurt herself and it was a way of explaining them 🤔. She did get weirdly emotional about dropping the spray in the sea 😬

She did, didn’t she. You’d think with an allergy like that she’d have a good few bottles at the ready.

I missed what the husband said to the new Annabel at the very end when Jo Joyner was in the wardrobe. The My5 app then wouldn’t let me rewind without giving me more adverts so I gave up. Was it something about money?

Blondeshavemorefun · 17/09/2024 13:32

I'm about 20mins in. Haven't read replies yet

Tho did he really think it was a good idea to bring new gf on the years anniversary of his wife's death

But so far I'm enjoying it

"Am I being unreasonable to think my husband should have told me his brother is dating a woman who appears identical to his dead wife and that she'd be turning up on our family holiday on the anniversary of her mysterious death?"

Get over yourself. It’s perfectly normal behaviour. It’s you that has the problem! 😂

Blondeshavemorefun · 17/09/2024 14:23

I loved the usual cheesy of ch 5

I'm hooked

So we know she is dead is that right

Death cert in wardrobe

But others think she is missing
