Alma's Not Normal | Series 2 Preview (BBC Two)

Created, written by, starring and Executive Produced by Sophie Willan, Alma’s Not Normal (6 x 30) centres on Boltonian wild-child, Alma Nuthall and her family of eccentric, unruly women and was the creation of Sophie in 2018 when she was inaugural winner of the BBC’s Caroline Aherne Bursary Award.

Alma (Sophie Willan) is back in town and desperate for things to be different. She bags herself a talent agent, who turns out to be a bit of a blagger. She buys herself some new wheels, that she can’t afford.

And lands herself an acting role that is completely demoralising. It’s safe to say, things are not panning out for Alma.

Meanwhile Lin (Siobhan Finneran) is back in hospital and has discovered a penchant for Witchcraft. Jim (Nick Asbury) is living at Joan’s as her pet, and her best mate Leanne (Jayde Adams) has transformed a truck into a bar that’s become Bolton’s biggest hot-spot.

Just as Alma starts to settle back into her Bolton life, Joan (Lorraine Ashbourne) has some shocking news that’s going to change everything.

Alma's Not Normal returns Monday 7th October at 10pm on BBC Two.
