Where was Lie With Me filmed and how many episodes is it?
Charlie Brooks leads the cast in brand new Channel 5 drama Lie With Me this week, and it promises to be the escapism we all need right now. Heres everything you need to know about the new Channel 5 mini-series starring Charlie Brooks. The series wrapped production on location in Melbourne, Australia, earlier this year. So as well as being a punchy, moody thriller, its also got a beautiful sunny backdrop. Production took place in the Australian city because the mini-series is a collaboration between Australian network Ten and the UKs sister broadcaster Channel 5. Filming commenced in 2020, meaning that Charlie had to spend some of that year more than 9000 miles from her home country and her family. The new noir thriller is four parts. Each episode is one hour long (including adverts). The series starts on Monday July 12 2021 and subsequently airs on consecutive nights that week until Thursday July 15 2021. This proved a big success with previous Channel 5 thrillers including The Intruder, The Drowning and The Deceived. The series will air on Channel 5 and will be available to watch immediately afterwards on My5. Lie with Me is not based on a book. But if it was a book, wed read it! The series, originally called With Intent, was created and written by Jason Herbison. Soap fans will know that Jason is best known for writing episodes of Neighbours and Home and Away. So it wont be much of a surprise perhaps when the first episode ends with a huge plot reveal. Channel 5 has released a teaser trailer for upcoming drama Lie With Me.

His character is heard telling his wife Anna: We came here to make a new start  New country, new life  put all that bad stuff behind us.  However, the images quickly change from happy families to menacing, troubled images of Anna staring through broken glass. We hear Anna saying: Jake cheated on me in London. It nearly destroyed us.  We see shots of Anna and Jake arguing  and Anna is seen staring at herself in the mirror nursing a badly bruised shoulder. Finally, the trailer ends with Annas voiceover saying: This country is full of things that can kill you.  Eek! Lie With Me starts on Monday July 12 2021 at 9pm on Channel 5.
