Jo isn’t a sympathetic woman. She’s stuck in a miserable relationship with her nagging husband. She undercuts – and contradicts – him frequently. She had an affair last year with her ex and is currently carrying on with somebody new.
Nevertheless, she’s the hero of Crossfire, the BBC’s new thriller series. Because when armed intruders lock down a hotel she’s staying at with her family, she might be their only shot of getting out of there.
