Every Tuesday, TMINE flags up what new TV events BAFTA is holding around the UK

Every Thursday, it says there. I looked at the listings yesterday – there were no new additions.

But now there’s one today. That’s just typical.

TV Preview: I Am Nicola

Tuesday, 28 May 2019 – 7:00pm
Princess Anne Theatre, 195 Piccadilly, London, W1J 9LN

A preview of the new Channel 4 drama followed by a Q+A with Vicky McClure, Perry Fitzpatrick, Dominic Savage and Krishnendu Majumdar.

I Am Nicola is a deeply moving story of a couple who find themselves stuck in a dysfunctional and coercive relationship. The audience is given an often-uncomfortable fly on the wall view into the fleeting ups and devastating downs of a tumultuous relationship. Condensing the lifespan of a couple down to its most pivotal moments.

Each film in the I Am series has been developed in partnership with the leading actors and examines themes including relationships, identity and empowerment. The trilogy explores the experience of three women in moments that are emotionally raw, thought-provoking and very personal. Samantha Morton stars in I Am Kirsty and Gemma Chan in I Am Hannah. I Am Nicola is written and directed by BAFTA-winning Dominic Savage (The Escape), story by Dominic Savage and Vicky McClure and produced by Krishnendu Majumdar
