If you enjoyed the creepy premise of shows like The Replacement (https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/uk/lifestyle/a66119638/best-workplace-dramas/) and The Au Pair (https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/uk/lifestyle/a64032776/the-au-pair-channel-5/), we’ve got something you’re going to enjoy!
Few things are as horrifying as letting someone into your home that you're not quite sure about - and The Intruder is the all-consuming psychological thriller (https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/uk/lifestyle/a64976625/the-trap-netflix/) coming to the BBC which explores that very idea.
A true babysitting nightmare, the French drama revolves around a mother whose new au pair initially seems angelic - but things quickly start to unravel.
The award-winning four-part drama follows Paula (Mélanie Doutey), a working mum who hires nanny Tess (Lucie Fagedet) to help out with her children ahead of returning to work.
At first, she seems perfect - but she starts to feel somewhat apprehensive when a series of strange domestic events occur.
And soon, Paula starts to question Tess’s true motives for entering her family home…
This four-part psychological thriller follows Paula (Mélanie Doutey), a 40-year-old mum of three who’s about to reach the end of her maternity leave, but doesn’t quite feel ready to return to work.
To make life easier for herself, she decides to hire au pair Tess (Lucie Fagedet), who - at first - seems perfect.
But Paula soon begins to feel a looming sense of unease as a string of strange domestic accidents make her look like a bad mother.
To make matters worse, no one believes Paula when she tells them she thinks her babysitter intends to harm her children.
The BBC’s official synopsis continues: “Maybe postpartum blues have made her paranoid? Or does Paula herself have something to hide? As for Tess, she didn’t enter their home by chance…”
