BBC One - Jimmy McGovern's Moving On, Series 6, Madge

Fun-loving 60-something Madge is hiding a very big secret.

Contemporary drama. Fun-loving 60-something Madge has a loving relationship with former magistrate Eric, but she is also hiding a very big secret.

Madge looks like a perfectly respectable woman in her late 60s, albeit one who lives life to the full. She has a loving relationship with former magistrate Eric and is firm friends with Eric's daughter Sam. She is a member of a health club and takes regular - if not entirely successful - trips to zumba. But behind this reputable exterior, Madge is hiding a very big secret: she has a husband called Mike, who has been in prison for the last 12 years... 

Since she met Eric, she has hidden behind yet another lie, claiming she volunteers at the prison. But the truth is bubbling under the surface and is about to spill over the edges...
