Film Description
Written by award-winning writer Paula Milne (The Politician's Wife), White Heat is a new drama series about the interwoven lives, loves and betrayals of seven characters whose relationships are followed from the 1960s through to the present day.
In 1965, students Jack (Sam Claflin), Charlotte (Claire Foy), Lilly (MyAnna Buring), Jay (Reece Ritchie), Alan (Lee Ingleby), Victor (David Gyasi) and Orla (Jessica Gunning) meet and, despite being an assorted mix of people, become friends while they share a flat together in London. As time passes, their lives intertwine with each other as they feel the impact of political developments and the outbreak of war and disease.
The series follows them over four decades as their lives, loves and destinies are shaped by the political events of each era - from the death of Churchill, the union strife of the Seventies, the ascendancy of Thatcher, the Falklands, Aids, the end of the Cold War to the present day. Their intertwined personal lives played against the backcloth of these crucial events converge to make them the people they are today.
