00:02 When I first heard about these Magdalene laundries,

00:05 I didn't know too much about them,

00:06 but these mother and baby homes only closed in 1998.

00:11 Do you know that woman?

00:12 The last time I saw her, she was walking away with my baby.

00:17 This was happening within Ireland,

00:19 and people don't know about it at all.

00:20 The woman in the wall centers around a woman called Lorna.

00:28 Lorna is a survivor of both Magdalene laundries

00:30 and mother and baby homes in Ireland.

00:34 Lorna suffers from a very strange sleepwalking habit.

00:38 And the story really kicks off when she finds a dead body.

00:41 In her house one morning, has no idea how the body got there.

00:44 I found it difficult at times knowing

00:49 the woman in the wall is based on true events.

00:52 Fill me in.

00:52 What's happened?

00:53 I play Coleman, a quite competent young detective.

00:57 This new case is a double-edged sword for Coleman.

01:00 He might discover truths that he does not want to unpack.

01:03 We don't believe in ghosts.

01:08 Doesn't mean we're not afraid of them, though.

01:10 The show itself is a mix of many different genre tropes.

01:14 It's a horror story.

01:16 It's drama.

01:17 And it's dark humor.

01:20 Sorry, Jesus.

01:21 It's about getting this story out to a wider audience

01:24 and reminding people what's true.

01:27 It's a story that needed to be told

01:29 and people are in for a roller coaster ride.
