Emmy nominee Ashley Jensen stars in this heartwarming drama set in a British register office, where people come to record life’s big events: births, marriages, and deaths. Senior Registrar Kate Dickenson (Jensen) juggles a hectic personal life with grumpy teenagers and longtime partner Rob (Adrian Bower, The Last Kingdom), while dealing with the emotional toll the job has on her. After a big promotion, jealous colleague Judy (Rebecca Front, Humans) threatens to reveal an indiscretion Kate had with her handsome coworker Rick (Kenny Doughty, Vera) that could throw Kate’s job—and family life—into jeopardy.
With compelling performances and insightful scripts from award-winning writer Kay Mellor, Love, Lies & Records “[has] it all—warmth, humor, and emotional tension. … Mellor has another hit on her talented hands” (Mirror, UK). This “thoroughly entertaining” (Mail on Sunday, UK) series also features Noof McEwan (Vera) and Mark Stanley (Game of Thrones).
