What is the plot of The Couple Next Door?
The Couple Next Door's second season follows Charlotte Roberts (Annabel Scholey) and her husband, Jacob (Sam Palladio), both successful in their medical careers as a heart surgeon and consultant anaesthetist, respectively. When their new colleague Mia (Aggy K Adams) rents out the house next door, Charlotte and Jacob's relationship takes a drastic turn. Mia begins to manipulate her way into their life, unraveling repressed desires and resentment.
Mia also starts a friendship with outcast Alan (Hugh Dennis), her intentions unknown. While Charlotte struggles to make sense of the loudening chaos brought upon by Mia, she also needs to deal with the emergence of Leo (Sendhil Ramamurthy), a former flame. When patients in their hospital start dying, all eyes turn to Mia, whose dark past comes back to haunt her.
Channel 4’s The Couple Next Door is loosely based on the Dutch series New Neighbours. It is written by David Allison, best known for co-creating the supernatural drama, Bedlam, and directed by Dries Vos (Professor T). The series is unrelated to Shari Lapena’s 2016 thriller novel The Couple Next Door.
