The latest Channel 5 drama landing on our screens is The Cuckoo<\/a>, a twisted tale of family secrets, close bonds and serious conflict. We wouldn\u2019t expect anything else from the broadcaster, after all.<\/p>\n

This new four-parter stars some very familiar faces to the TV drama world, including Jill Halfpenny, Lee Ingleby, Claire Goose and Freya Hannan-Mills.
