The Guest, the upcoming BBC thriller starring Eve Myles, has unveiled a devilish new trailer.

The four-part series (https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a65286088/the-guest-first-look-bbc/) sees the Broadchurch (https://www.digitalspy.com/broadchurch/)and Torchwood (https://www.digitalspy.com/torchwood/) star portray Fran, a business owner who is thrust into a "toxic and beguiling" relationship with one of her employees, Ria (Gabrielle Creevy).

The Guest is a hugely entertaining, deftly plotted thriller that will have viewers gripped," said Lindsay Salt, Director of BBC Drama, while Nick Andrews, Head of Commissioning for BBC Cymru Wales, dubbed it a "a twisty-turny edge of your seat thriller".

"Ria has never had the time or opportunity to think about what she might actually want from the world," reads the logline.

"So, when she starts cleaning for Fran, she’s intoxicated by this confident and self-assured woman who encourages her to take control of her life.

When Ria flourishes, an intense friendship is forged. However, when Fran’s advice leads to a shocking event, the lives of these two very different women become intertwined by shared secrets and dangerous plots."

However, when Fran's advice leads to a shocking event, the lives of these two very different women become intertwined by shared secrets and dangerous plots.

What follows is a compelling and manipulative game of cat and mouse. But just who is playing who?"

Looks good!

It's BBC Cymru Wales, but presumably not something that's been on before as a Welsh-language series, like Keeping Faith, but something brand-new?

Blondeshavemorefun · 25/08/2025 22:13

No they said they didn’t do Welsh and English for this

Well that all escalated very quickly didn't it Shock

EveryKneeShallBow · 01/09/2025 22:02

Why do we think it’s called “The Guest”?

dapsnotplimsolls · 01/09/2025 22:02

Blimey!

IcedPurple · 01/09/2025 22:03

Really liked the first episode but will be watching at TV pace. I suspect most will watch on Player so will likely be lonely here!

The scenes with the cleaner pretending to be lady of the manor really reminded me of Parasite. You just knew there was going to be a call from the owner on her way back at any minute, didn't you? I must say she was a quick learner with the sushi and all!

Gloriia · 01/09/2025 22:03

I'd quite admired that light fitting too

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/09/2025 22:04

@IcedPurple I’m tv paced

Yep. I thought he'd fall over and knock his head off the marble flooring but that was some impressive way to make an exit!

Gloriia · 01/09/2025 22:09

I do like the female characters both equally a bit weird. Eve's big hair do up there with Liz's in Protection.

Clawdy · 01/09/2025 22:09

I was enjoying it until she asked the guy round, pretending it was her house. So ridiculous, and from then on it went downhill for me. Not sure I'll watch next week.

SabreIsMyFave · 01/09/2025 22:10

Just watching this now! About halfway through episode 1. The lass (the cleaner) has just shouted at her boyfriend to get a job, and is now looking on dating apps. Seems intriguing so far!

PuppyMonkey · 01/09/2025 22:10

Enjoyed that - certainly didn’t go where I thought it was going to go. Grin

Yes the house is too flash and they'd need a team of cleaners to keep on top of that not just one person with a Henry.
