Keeping Faith: Episode 1
It’s 18 months since Faith learned the truth about her husband Evan – and their divorce and custody battle is going from bad to worse.
Faith tries to be positive as she juggles being a single mother and a lawyer – taking on the new case of a gravely ill boy – while establishing a brand new law firm with Cerys. Lisa is on hand to support her.
Steve gets an unexpected visitor at his home and is forced to do a job in order to keep a roof over his daughter’s head. Reluctantly he agrees, but he’s disturbed in the process.
Alys – who’s 14 going on 21 – has a boyfriend and being the rebellious teen that she is, smuggles her boyfriend Lewis into the house.
And when Steve is dragged into a dodgy second job, Faith is less than impressed when she comes face to face with a threatening figure from her dark past.
Faith Howells, a fun-loving lawyer with a happy marriage and three children, enjoying an extended maternity leave from the law firm she founded with her husband, Evan. Then one day, Evan leaves for work but never arrives. Faith scrambles to handle the clients Evan left behind, all while trying to find out what happened to her husband. As the days go by with no sign of him, Faith becomes the police’s prime suspect, and her search for the truth leads her to the criminal underbelly of her quiet Welsh town. When long-buried family secrets come to light, Faith wonders if she ever really knew her husband at all.
Scenes for Un Bore Mercher and Keeping Faith were filmed back to back, one in Welsh and one in English, but a few instances of cast and crew members being used differently between each language, as well as Keeping Faith running 10 minutes longer, have led us to split the show into two entries.
