The first images have been released of the BBC's 'Wild Cherry'
Nicôle Lecky is making her highly anticipated return to BBC scheduling following the BAFTA-award winning success of Mood with a brand new series, Wild Cherry.
The drama, which was filmed in Surrey, is described as a provocative and deliciously honest look at mother-daughter relationships, privilege and peer pressure in the age of social media.
The ensemble cast features Eve Best and Carmen Ejogo as best friends and mothers, whose daughters are entwined in a scandal at their private school. Ahead is everything we know so far about BBC's Wild Cherry...

What is Wild Cherry about?
The official synopsis for the six-part drama is as follows: "Meet Lorna (Carmen Ejogo), a self-made, successful Black businesswoman from South London who has worked hard to be where she is – and best friend Juliet (Eve Best), a woman born into the privileged gated community they both call home.
"Daughters Grace (Imogen Faires) and Allegra (Amelia May) are BFFs and live a life other teenagers can only dream of. A safe haven for the super-rich and their little darlings, Richford Estate is a place where bad things never happen…
"Until, that is, Grace and Allegra are implicated in a shocking scandal at their exclusive private school and Juliet and Lorna are forced to take sides, pushing their friendship to breaking point. As toxic secrets and lies ripple through the idyllic town, cracks within the community threaten to reveal the elitist ugliness and betrayal beneath."
