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?"

The twisty thriller comes to screens this autumn.

Fran on the run with no money

She had all those rolls of cash?

If they couldn’t find her and extract a confession, I’m not sure how they could have ruled Ria out as a suspect.

Ria had persuaded Gemma to back her up.

Not sure how that would have helped in the case of the husband’s murder. Particularly when there was forensic evidence linking Ria to the crime, plus her guilty behaviour in running from the cops.

I know it’s just a TV show Smile

Exactly. Especially given that they'd investigated her about Mike just a few weeks earlier. She was the only other person in the house on that night, and there seemed to be evidence implicating her in Simon's case too. Clearly something dodgy going on with her.

But yeah, as you say, it's just a TV show and probably doesn't warrant close examination!

So many questions

Who was the curtain twitcher?
Who was the mysterious shadowy person lurking outside the door?
What was the relevance of Ria finding Derek in the cellar? Were we supposed to think Anna had been killed there?
If Anna was alive why didn’t she let Dave Coaches know?
What was the point of the sex tape?
Why was Derek put in a home all of a sudden? poor man 😢
Why was chipboard used to fix that beautiful staircase?
What happened to the cat? 🐈‍⬛

I could go on………

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/10/2025 09:09

I think the cat was luckier than Harlequin …….

You really have to watch this in tandem with Coldwater, on ITV, if you haven't seem it already. More crazy stuff from Eve Myles!

purpleme12 · 02/10/2025 23:40

Coldwater too much for me

But I liked The Guest

Couldn’t give Coldwater more than one episode. Crap in my opinion lol but husband loved it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/10/2025 11:43

Cold water was good. I enjoyed last nights new police detective on itv
