5 has annouced a new drama series Forever Home, an adaptation of the best-selling novel of the same name by Graham Norton.
The six-part series follows the story of a second wife dealing with the memories of the woman who went before her. When Carol discovers a long-dead body hidden in the basement of her home, the horrific realization is undeniable – she’s living with a killer.
The story that her husband’s first wife ran away never to be seen again now looks like a lie, and the fact he’s insisted on never selling the house suddenly makes sense. But one dark family secret is soon to be replaced by another…
Confirmed cast includes Amy Nuttall and Lewis Cope – names that should be familiar to Emmerdale viewers as Chloe (2000-2005) and Nicky Miligan (2022-2024).
Also confirmed are Waterloo Road’s Denise Welch, Kevin Whately (Inspector Morse, Lewis), and Samantha Bond (The Marlow Murder Club, The Inheritance).
Filming in Northumberland and set to air on 5 in 2026. Forever Home is a darkly emotional story about marriage, family and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her children.
