When a beloved friendship becomes a battleground, the lines between loyalty, love, and self-preservation blur in ways that reveal who we truly are. This June, Nicola Walker steps away from the procedural solemnity of Unforgotten and into the chaotic comedy of Alice and Steve on Disney+, a six-part series exploring what happens when the people closest to us become the very source of our undoing. Created by Sophie Goodhart and set alongside Jemaine Clement, the show asks an ancient and uncomfortable question: how far will we go for the ones we love — and how far for the ones we refuse to lose?
