Sally Wainwright brings the spotlight to West Yorkshire with her latest BBC drama, Riot Women, filmed in and around Hebden Bridge.
Creator of Happy Valley and Last Tango in Halifax, Wainwright swaps crime and heartbreak for punk guitars and midlife rebellion in a story about five women who rediscover their spark through music, friendship, and chaos.
All episodes of Riot Women are available on BBC iPlayer, with the first episode airing on BBC One.

Wainwright describes the show as "a drama about women of a certain age who are at various stages of going through the menopause, but it’s not just about the menopause."
