Hide AdBrock, the creator behind Casualty, Mrs Brown and Bafta-winner The Last King Of Scotland, said: "For a long time, I've wanted to write about what it feels like to be a parent, to try and balance the unconditionality of parental love with the shock of adult passion.
"Our values are bound up with our identity ... children, family, work, love, our ideologies.
"I wanted to write about what happens when all these lights, by which we steer, are suddenly torn away and we are offered the stark choice: adapt or risk losing everything."
