Babies Cast List for BBC Series Starring Paapa Essiedu and Siobhán Cullen
Babies, inspired by writer Stefan Golaszewski’s personal experiences, portrays a couple’s repeated pregnancy loss to highlight miscarriage as grief, not illness, the BBC said.
- The new BBC drama series Babies premieres at 9 p.m. today, Monday, March 30, on BBC One, starring Paapa Essiedu and Cullen as a couple in their 30s navigating multiple miscarriages.
- Writer Stefan Golaszewski, known for Mum and Marriage, created the series after experiencing personal pregnancy-related traumas between 2012 and 2015, seeking to address an underexplored subject.
- Charlotte Riley and Jack Bannon star as Amanda and Dave, a new couple testing their compatibility; their storyline exposes cracks in Stephen and Dave's long-standing friendship.
- The second episode airs tomorrow, Tuesday, March 31, in the same timeslot, with the remaining four episodes following the same pattern and available on BBC iPlayer.
- While not autobiographical, Essiedu noted the drama aims to "speak truthfully about an experience that remains unspeakable," treating grief rather than illness to help those with loss feel less alone.
