The series is based on a book of the same name by Sarah Pinborough, and Eve Hewson - who plays Adele - recently opened up to Heart.co.uk about the similarities between the book and series.

She said: "I think we stayed pretty true to the book, I know that Sarah Pinborough said she loved what she saw and she wrote the book, so if she’s happy with it then i think we’ve done a good job.

"There are obviously some things from the book that I think we would have loved to put in that we couldn’t just based on basic timing, things like that.

"But i think even people who haven’t read the book when they watch the show they’ll want to go and read the book, so I think that means we did a good job."
