To mark the release of the new ITV heist-drama series Frauds, we had the pleasure in catching up with leading duo Suranne Jones and Jodie Whittaker. The pair open up about playing complex female fraudsters, the thrill of high-stakes heists, and why their toxic friendship makes this drama unmissable.

Jones tells us how she deliberately writes multi-layered characters to give herself a challenge, while we couldn’t help but ask about the remarkable talent that comes out of the North of England.

Watch the full interview with Suranne Jones & Jodie Whittaker here:
