Based on the best-selling novel by Matt Haig, and co-written by comedian Jo Brand, The Radleys is a scarily relatable black comedy with a bite.

The Radleys are an ordinary family, or at least that’s what the neighbours think. No one would suspect that behind all of this, the Radleys hold a dark secret… they are vampires.

Only parents Helen (Kelly Macdonald) and Peter (Damian Lewis) know about the family’s true nature. They are ‘abstainers’, vampires who choose not to drink blood despite their natural cravings.

Their teenagers, vegan Clara and lovesick Rowan, have no idea, until one evening Clara is attacked by a boy in her class and her bloodthirsty instincts take over, forcing her parents to finally reveal the truth.

With these revelations, Rowan begins to question his own identity. The temptation to try his first taste of blood only grows stronger with the arrival of Uncle Will (also played by Lewis), Peter’s twin brother.

A practicing vampire, Will pulls back the curtain on his vampiric life of hedonism and freedom. Will is all swagger and sex appeal, and his presence throws the whole family off their axis, unleashing suppressed desires for parents and teens alike.

Can the family continue to hold back their hidden bloodlust, or will they give in to their true nature?
