Add ARY News on Google AAResize. The new BBC detective series features two Coronation Street favourites amongst its ensemble. The Hairdresser Mysteries, penned by Jim Cartwright, has unveiled an initial glimpse at the nostalgic 1970s-set crime drama and revealed its star-studded line-up.
A synopsis for the forthcoming six-part programme revealed, “The Hairdresser Mysteries is an original, homegrown drama and a nostalgic nod to the 70’s which sees a high-end hairdresser, Lily Petal (Sally Phillips), opt out of the competitive city scene to buy a small village hairdresser’s at the top of a cobbled street.
“Everyone tells their hairdresser everything, and soon she becomes the hub of her new village’s secrets and revelations. Using her own brand of uncannily developed hairdressing intuition, empathy, and understanding, Lily begins to solve the mysteries of the village.”
