Emily nurtures Laura\u2019s neuroses about her ability as a mother, fuels tensions in her marriage and reignites an old flame from her past.<\/p>\n<p><em>Under Her Skin<\/em> is being produced by Gaumont, in partnership with Banijay Rights for international distribution. It is written and created by Jo Rogers (<em>The Colony<\/em>), who also serves as associate producer. Adrian McDowall (<em>The Last Czars<\/em>, <em>Willow<\/em>) is director. Executive producers for Gaumont are Alison Jackson and Jessica Connell.<\/p>\n<p>The series has begun filming in Malta and is set to air in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson said: \u201cWe are thrilled to bring this contemporary, provocative story to life in our first project with Channel 5. Jo Joyner and Rachel Shenton are a hugely dynamic duo, and we can\u2019t wait to see them bring these characters to life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joyner commented: \u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to working on this gripping thriller for Channel 5. It is really great to be working with Gaumont, an almost exclusively female team, and I feel this is reflected in the brilliant scripts. There is such a contradiction with the character of Laura, so focused and organized in her work life and yet chaotic and insecure with her home life. I feel it really resonates. I am so looking forward to working with Rachel Shenton and for us to bring these two flawed women to the screen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shenton added: \u201cI\u2019m absolutely thrilled to be part of <em>Under Her Skin<\/em>. Jo Rogers has created such a dark and compelling story that has two women at its center. I loved it and couldn\u2019t put it down. I can\u2019t wait to bring Emily to life; she\u2019s wild.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paul Testar, commissioning editor for Channel 5, said: \u201cI\u2019m so excited that we are working with the esteemed teams at Gaumont and Banijay Rights to bring this gripping psychological thriller to the Channel 5 audience. With such a strong script and an outstanding cast led by Jo Joyner and Rachel Shenton, fans of Channel 5 thrillers will love sinking their teeth into this.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Channel 5 has ordered the four-part psychological thriller Under Her Skin (w.t.), with Jo Joyner (Stay Close, Ackley Bridge) and Rachel Shenton (All Creatures Great and Small) starring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":17930,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[5509,5510,1605,761,1730,5511,5512,5513,5514,5515],"class_list":["post-17929","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-adrian-mcdowall","tag-alison-jackson","tag-banijay-rights","tag-channel-5","tag-gaumont","tag-jo-joyner","tag-jo-rogers","tag-paul-testar","tag-rachel-shenton","tag-under-her-skin","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
