The lives of six expectant couples will be the focus of the latest six-part drama, In The Club, from BBC One.
Cast include Hermione Norris, Tara Fitzgerald, Jill Halfpenny and Katherine Parkinson, plus Will Mellor, Jonathan Kerrigan, Christine Bottomley, Luke Thompson, Taj Atwal, Sacha Dhawan and newcomer Hannah Midgley.
A seemingly straightforward antenatal group reveals secrets and lies bubbling beneath the surface that threaten each of the new families. In sharing the most intimate of experiences, they are shown how dreams can change in an instant and form a life-long bond and friendship.
Kay has woven an utterly compelling, hilarious and dramatic series that, through the story of a group of pregnant women, showcases human life in all of its joy and tragedy. – Ben Stephenson, BBC Controller of Drama Commissioning
In The Club is the latest drama from Kay Mellor OBE, creator and writer of acclaimed dramas including The Syndicate, A Passionate Woman and Fat Friends.
Filming in and around Leeds from January, the drama is a Rollem Production produced by Yvonne Francas for the BBC.

Bit of a bonus I say
First thing I thought...:D I'm looking forward to this, I think it's a strong cast
Don't worry, the family is being represented by Yvonne Francas doing the production - as usual.
Too busy in Emmerdale
Wow, I didn't realise that there was even more nepotism going on with her family. Looking on IMDB it seems that a lot of the shows that Kay has written have had not only starred Faye, but also been produced by Yvonne!
The newcomer Hannah Midgley once played Victoria Sugden in Emmerdale for a good few years
No he isn't.
You are right but it's still loads better than most other stuff. I must admit, I get hooked every time as she always gets really good actors in her stuff.
It'll be shown in 2014 but there's been no date revealed as yet.
Anyone looking forward to this? Didn't realise it was written by Kay Mellor, I usually enjoy her stuff.
Me too..I like Hermione Norris!
