“The main theme of the [The Couple Next Door] is desire and what happens when ordinary people cross their own moral boundaries. It’s the anticipation of this forbidden sex, that slow, burning obsession, which will eventually ignite in spectacular fashion, which makes this a very sexy series,” says executive producer Jo McGrath of the new six-part dark psychological thriller starring Outlander heartthrob Sam Heughan.

Heughan is traffic cop Danny, living in an upscale community with his yoga instructor wife, Becka (Jessica De Gouw, Pennyworth). They have an open relationship and welcome the new couple on their street, teacher Evie (Eleanor Tomlinson, Poldark) and journalist Pete (Alfred Enoch, How to Get Away With Murder), with very open arms.
