Now, Solemani has turned her hand to adapting Jo Bloom\u2019s novel <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/jo-bloom-adaptation-ridley-road\/&quot;\">Ridley Road<\/a> for BBC One (available to watch on the 3rd of October at 9pm).<\/p>\n<!--[if lt IE 9]&gt;document.createElement('audio');&lt;![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"&quot;wp-audio-shortcode&quot;\" id=\"&quot;audio-1375814-1&quot;\" preload=\"&quot;none&quot;\" style=\"width:\" controls=\"&quot;controls&quot;\"><a href=\"\/\/media.acast.com\/radio-times-podcast\/sarahsolemani-sexactually-princephillip-theroyalfamilyremembers-brassic\/media.mp3&quot;\">https:\/\/media.acast.com\/radio-times-podcast\/sarahsolemani-sexactually-princephillip-theroyalfamilyremembers-brassic\/media.mp3<\/a><\/audio><p>Ridley Road is set in London during the Swinging Sixties. It unpacks the struggle of the 62 Group \u2013 a coalition of Jewish men who fought against the neo-Nazism rife in post WWII Britain. It follows Vivien Epstein (played by rising star Agnes O\u2019Casey) who colludes with 62 Group after her missing boyfriend is critically injured. In an absorbing sequence of events, Epstein sets out to infiltrate the London based neo-Nazi group NSM, placing herself at great risk. It\u2019s a vivid and mesmerising adaptation that delves into the dark and disturbing resurgence of Fascism.<\/p>\n<p>Solemani talks about Britain\u2019s painful history in the aftermath of WWII \u2013 and, the modern day struggle of female screenwriters to secure commissions over their male counterparts.<\/p>\n<h2>What else can I expect from Episode 4?<\/h2>\n<p>Host Jane Garvey is joined by our resident TV critic Rhianna Dhillon to mark our cards for the week ahead.
