TV tonight: The Split spin-off brings glossy divorce drama to BBC One
A new series following lawyers balancing personal chaos with professional success premieres at 9pm on BBC One.
The new drama, a spin-off from Abi Morgan's The Split, centres on Aria, who expects to inherit her family's Manchester law firm following her father's death. The series follows lawyers juggling their own relationship troubles while managing clients' cases, maintaining the "soapy beats" of its predecessor.
The evening's schedule also includes Michelle Keegan in a murder investigation drama. The new series explores themes including a postponed wedding, a high-profile case involving a podcasting couple, and the discovery of an affair.
