Hollington Drive is a four part ITV television drama series that began broadcasting on 29 September 2021. Created and written by Sophie Petzal, the series follows two sisters and their families as they grapple with the potential crime of their children.[1][2]
Two sisters, café chain owner Theresa (Anna Maxwell Martin) and primary school headteacher Helen (Rachael Stirling), are inseparable, living side-by-side with their families in well-to-do suburban Hollington Drive.
