After The Party, a new Channel 4 series, is coming to our screens in November.
Ahead of the new show, you might be wondering who will play the key roles and how you can tune in to watch it.
The thriller/drama series stars the likes of Robyn Malcolm (Outrageous Fortune, Black Bird, Top of the Lake), Peter Mullan (The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Westworld, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1) and more.
Set in Aotearoa, New Zealand, the series will have six episodes for viewers to watch – here’s what we know.
After The Party to air on Channel 4 from November 2024
A summary from the Radio Times says: “A woman accuses her husband of a sex crime against her daughter's teenage friend and no one believes her.
“Five years later, when her now ex-husband returns to town, her daughter pressures her to let go of her accusations and move on.”
As her old furies rise to the surface, Penny must decide what’s more important – the truth or rebuilding her relationships with everyone around her?

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
