UK drama The Virtues starring Stephen Graham (Line of Duty) screens on Stan from Friday.

The series from Shane Meadows & Jack Thorne is a BAFTA nominee and featured at Series Mania in Melbourne 2019.

Acclaimed writer and director Shane Meadows (This is England) reunites with co-creator Jack Thorne (Kiri) and lead actor Stephen Graham (Line of Duty) for The Virtues, a complex, moving and powerful story of love and redemption shot through with heart and humour. Graham stars as Joseph, a moral yet troubled man who’s lost everything he ever held dear. Joseph finds himself compelled to travel to Ireland to confront the demons that continue to haunt him from a childhood spent in the care system, a journey that will have savage and brutal consequences. His path soon crosses with that of Dinah, played by Niamh Algar (Raised by Wolves). She’s fiery and more than able to stand up for herself but, like Joseph, she’s also deeply guarded, holding close a secret she’s hiding from all those around her.

Friday February 5 on Stan.
