The Following Events Are Based On A Pack of Lies is a drama arriving on BBC1 as part of its Autumn TV season. The unconventional dark comedic thriller focuses on two very different women — Alice Newman (Rebekah Staton) and Cheryl Harker (Marianne Jean-Baptiste) who have just one thing in common — being taken for a ride by conman Dr Rob Chance (Alistair Petrie).
With Derek Jacobi also starring as Sir Ralph Unwin, who may or may not also be being scammed by Rob, the dark comedy promises to be an eventful ride.
