The Syndicate (2012)

The Syndicate, releaed on DVD on 7th May 2012 by ITV Studios Home Entertainment, is a brand new five-part drama for BBC One which follows five workers at a cut-price supermarket in Leeds whose lives are turned upside down after they jointly win the lottery, going from facing redundancy and battling the present economic downturn to having more money than they ever dreamt of.

Timothy Spall plays supermarket manager Bob, whose newfound wealth cannot mask his persistent health problems. Joanna Page plays single mother Leanne, who although welcomes her financial freedom, is worried about the consequences that the win will bring.

They are joined by their supermarket colleagues - dog-loving Denise, played by Lorraine Bruce (Dalziel And Pascoe, Benidorm) and brothers Stuart, played by Matthew McNulty (Five Days, Lark Rise To Candleford, Single Handed) and Jamie played by Matthew Lewis (Harry Potter).

The Syndicate is written by Kay Mellor, whose previous critically acclaimed dramas include: Band Of Gold, Playing The Field, Fat Friends, The Chase and A Passionate Woman.
