Sheridan plays the role of Kathy. Kathy’s 16-year-old son, Noah, is accused of sexually assaulting a boy – a crime he denies committing.

Noah now faces the very real possibility of being locked up in a Turkish prison, thousands of miles from home.

Last night, the first episode of the new four-part drama aired. Viewers watched as Noah was arrested by Turkish police in the early hours of the morning.

They also saw that the odds were stacked up against the 16 year old as there was plenty of evidence available to prove his guilt.
