Monday 4th May 2020

The Secrets She Keeps
Started Wednesday 22nd April
This one is a tale of motherhood and obsession.
Jessica de Gouw (The Crown, The Hunting) plays Meghan: influencer, Stepford wife and mother, with another child on the way. Is her aesthetically-pleasing life really that perfect? And why is she so frosty towards her husband’s best friend, Simon (Ryan Corr)?
And while we realise early on that something isn’t quite right with supermarket worker Agatha, played by Laura Carmichael (Downton Abbey, The Spanish Princess), it isn’t until a jaw-dropping closing scene at the end of episode one that we see just how sinister this story is going to get.
Will these ladies be able to keep their secrets just that?

Beecham House
Soon
Set in the 1795, amidst the clashing forces of British and French militaries and the decline of the centuries-old Mughal Empire, Beecham House tells the story of enigmatic Englishman and former soldier John Beecham.
When Beecham arrives at his grand new Delhi estate to great fanfare, the presence of a (mixed-race and apparently motherless!) baby is more than just a surprise to the staff—it’s a mystery that only deepens as he falls for English governess Margaret Osbourne.
As his overbearing mother, his rebellious brother and even more complicated guests arrive, politics, passion, ambition and revenge collide, all under the roof of Beecham House.

Changing Rooms
An interesting one. This was 10’s big new show for 2019, but was pulled due to low ratings. 10 advised at the time that the episodes would screen later that year. The show did not resonate with a big audience but the production qualities were slick and during this time of local production being stalled, this would be great new Australian content. 10 advises that there are no plans to screen the remaining episodes.
With MasterChef as a lead in t o a number of returning or new shows, Q2 looks to be a massive success for the network.
Thank you to 10 for participating in this and allowing viewers an update to all their favourite shows.
