Lynda La Plante has lived an illustrious life and has the stories to prove it!

From her early days in Liverpool to her unexpected acceptance into RADA, joining peers Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt and Ian McShane; from beginning her scriptwriting career with Widows and Prime Suspect and becoming a BAFTA award-winning writer and producer.

Starting her writing career in the eighties, an era of entrenched gender inequality both in front of and behind the camera, Lynda faced innumerable obstacles to her vision.

Getting Away with Murder is a story of breaking down stereotypes and blazing a trail for others along the way. Still at the very top of her game, Lynda shares her story on her own terms.
