What’s The Secrets She Keeps about?

The show stars Laura Carmichael as Agatha Fyfle; a pregnant supermarket worker, and Jessica De Gouw as Meghan O'Shaughnessy; a seemingly perfect housewife who is also expecting.

However, at the end of the first episode it is revealed that Agatha is faking her pregnancy. After meeting in the supermarket and following Meghan’s online life, Agatha hatches a plan to steal the baby.

When the child becomes ill, Agatha refuses to take him to the hospital, and instead runs away. The end of the series sees a confrontation between the two women, along with the unravelling of more secrets.

Will there be a The Secrets She Keeps season 2?

We have reached out to the BBC, but sadly there’s no confirmation of a second series just yet.

However, the show ended in a way that would lend itself to more episodes, so fans are hopeful there'll be a follow-up.

For now, watch this space...

The Secrets She Keeps is available to watch on iPlayer now.
