‘Happy Valley’ Creator’s New Drama ‘Riot Women’ Sees Joanna Scanlan, Tamsin Greg Join a Menopausal Rock Band in First Look


Tamsin Greig and Joanna Scanlan are ready to rock in first look images from Sally Wainwright's new drama series 'Riot Women.'

“As the story progresses, it’s more than music that binds them; a deeply potent, long-buried secret begins to surface – one that unexpectedly entangles Kitty and Beth, the two unlikely creative masterminds behind the band, in a complex triangle – and threatens to tear everything apart,” reads the logline. “I’m having a whole new buzz of excitement about the show as we bring it together in the edit, and I can’t wait to share it with everyone!” said Wainwright, who creates, writes, directs and exec produces the series. Roanna Benn (“One Day”) is the executive producer for Drama Republic, with Tanya Qureshi for the BBC, Robert Schildhouse and Jess O’Riordan for BritBox.
