Ridley Road: a new ABC series

Based on a true story, this four-part thriller series is set in 1962 and sees Vivien (Agnes O’Casey) a young Jewish hairdresser from Manchester, join an underground movement trying to stop the rise of the far-right.

Vivien (Agnes O’Casey)

Inspired by the struggle of the 62 Group, a coalition of Jewish men who stood up against rising neo-Nazism in post-war Britain, Vivien starts working with them when she realises that Jack, her missing boyfriend (Tom Varey), has been badly injured. Vivien infiltrates the NSM, a neo-Nazi movement which is becoming increasingly prominent in London, risking everything for her beliefs and for the man she loves.

Premieres Saturday 13th November 8.20pm on ABC TV and ABC iview
