Story

In the center of the plot of the show is Dr. Foster who is a forty-year old woman. Her name is Gemma Foster and she works as a doctor and has a pretty calm life. The heroine can be called a truly happy woman, because she has a prestigious job, a loving husband, and a wonderful son.

But one day, everything is turned upside down, and life starts to go downhill. It all started with the fact that Gemma began to suspect her husband of infidelity. She has found little evidence, but it was enough to make her suspicious.

After finding that out, Gemma tries to live as if nothing had happened, but doubts about the loyalty of her husband do not give her a rest. Gemma starts to lose control and begins to look for evidence to confirm that she is right. Her life is gradually turning into endless lurks and search for clues. Dr. Foster who was recently very calm turns into an irritable woman, who mistreats patients, escapes from work, and behaves very strangely. Family life turns into chaos and Gemma’s ill-considered actions lead to unpredictable consequences.

Interesting

In general, the show was well received by the audience. The pilot got predominantly positive feedback from many critics. The Guardian’s Lucy Mangan said that the show was a great portrait of a marriage that is slowly starts to get poisoned, although she also noted that the show might turn into melodrama. In a review for The Telegraph, Michael Hogan gave the show four stars out of five. He said that the show was interestingly written.
