The Confessions of Frannie Langton preview

In this new historical fiction, Karla-Simone Spence stars as former slave Frannie Langton. From a Jamaican plantation to the streets of Georgian London, she finds herself working as a servant for celebrated scientist George Benham and his wife Marguerite Benham, whom she falls in love with.

Already filled with trauma and a harrowing past she can’t seem to escape from, Frannie finds herself in another nightmare after the Benhams are found murdered. Now she must painfully revisit all the events leading up to the most horrible night of her life, just so she could tell her own story.

The Confessions of Frannie Langton is adapted for television by Collins herself, with Andrea Harkin directing all episodes. Collins also serves as executive producer alongside Greg Brenman and Rebecca de Souza.
