Penniless following the death of her husband, Annie Quaintain and her two children are forced to start a new life in Jericho, a remote town in the expansive and rugged Yorkshire dales.


1870s, the shantytown of Jericho is home to a community of pioneers, prostitutes and vagabonds who will live and die in the shadow of the viaduct they’ve been brought together to build.


Rough and rustic, yet with a wild west, carnival-like atmosphere, it’s a place where people with secrets can hide, and where love can flourish against all odds.

Set against a visually striking frontier landscape, this epic, eight-part drama series follows the creation of a community from nothing and the human stories and heroic struggles of survival that emerge.

Starring Jessica Raine (Wolf Hall, Call The Midwife) and Clarke Peters (The Wire, Treme).
