Former EastEnders star Jo Joyner gave BBC viewers an insight into her upcoming new TV show, The Wives.
The Channel 5 mystery drama tells the story of three sisters-in-law Beth, Sylvia and Natasha who are determined to get to the bottom of the death of their other sister-in-law, Annabelle.
Every year the Morgan clan go to Malta, however, one disastrous trip ended up with Annabelle missing leaving her husband Charlie and daughter Sky behind.
With the police finding her phone by a cliff, they suspected that she had fallen and died.
Fast forward and the family are back once again in Malta, although things aren’t quite right.
When Charlie brings his young new girlfriend to the group trip, who looks like Annabelle, suspicions start to rise.
Speaking about the upcoming six-part series, Jo told The One Show viewers: “My character in particular, Beth, is obsessed about the loss of Annabelle and she just feels that something is not quite right.”
BBC host Alex Jones highlighted that the series looks at all different stages of life as Jo agreed.
She added: “They’re all different, they’re a bit spice girly.
“You’ve got Sylvie who is newly divorced from one of the brothers who’s not around. She’s in her second phase and having this whole new life.
“There’s Ange (Angela Griffin) who plays Natasha, who is really struggling at the moment, I don’t want to give that away either! This is difficult!
“Then, there’s my character who I can talk about, her sons are all grown up and she’s devoted her life to making her husband and children a success, now she’s wondering where she fits in.”
When asked if she’s anything like her character in the show, Jo laughed as she confessed to not devoting her life to her husband so no.
Not wanting to give too much away, the actress coyly teased that things will spiral within the show as the drama unfolds.
The Wives is now confirmed to launch Monday, September 16, 9pm on Channel 5 & My5.
