ITV1’s new period drama The Bletchley Circle will premiere on Thursday September 6th at 9pm, it has been announced.
The Bletchley Circle is set in 1951 and follows Susan, Millie, Lucy and Jean, all of whom worked as codebreakers at Bletchley Park during the war and have now returned to civillian life. At Susan’s insistence, the four women get back together and use the skills they acquired during the war to crack a murder case which has the police stymied. The drama series stars Anna Maxwell Martin as Susan, a seemingly conservative and unadventurous 1950′s housewife and mother; Rachael Stirling as Millie, who can speak fourteen languages and has a streetwise approach to life; Sophie Rundle as Lucy, whose youthful, naïve exterior masks a brilliant memory for data recall and Jean, the methodical no-nonsense organiser with valuable access to key records and documents.
