The hit BBC1 mini-series. From Kay Mellor, the
writer of 'Fat Friends', 'Band of Gold', 'Playing
The Field' and 'The Chase'. Set in Leeds, in the
North of England, between the the 1950s and 1980s,
Betty is a young wife and mother whose life is changed
forever after she falls hopelessly and dangerously
in love with her charismatic Polish neighbour, Alex
Crazenovski, better known as “Craze”. Against her
principles, she soon abandons herself to a world
of untapped thrills and passion, a world that has
been so desperately missing from her own conventional
and claustrophobic marriage. But little does Betty
realise that her compulsive passion and its consequences
will create ripples that reach far into her later
life, imploding 30 years later on her beloved son’s
wedding day.
