For those who are yet to tune in, Rain Dogs tells the story of Costello Jones, a recently sober single mother to ten-year-old Iris who is doing everything she can to make ends meet.
Costello, who works as a writer, finds herself in some seriously sticky situations as she tries to earn money and keep a roof over her daughters head.
As the synopsis explains: "It's normal to hate the people you love. A makeshift family bound by defiance, chaos, poverty and pain. A wild, swaggering tale of love and friendship."
The show boasts an incredible cast. As mentioned, This Country star Daisy May Cooper leads the cast as Costello Jones while Fleur Tashjian stars as her daughter, Iris. Other names who appear include Jack Farthing as Selby, Ronkẹ Adékoluẹjo as Gloria, and Adrian Edmondson as Lenny.
