The powerful new love story comes from Stefan Golaszewski, who brought us Mum, Him & Her and Marriage.

BBC One has released a first look at Babies, a new six-part drama written and directed by Stefan Golaszewski and starring Paapa Essiedu and Siobhán Cullen, alongside Jack Bannon and Charlotte Riley.

Babies is described as a warm and touching drama which explores the delicate tightrope of love and loss in a young couple's desire to become parents. Lisa, played by Siobhán Cullen and Stephen, played by Paapa Essiedu, are dealing with the painful struggle of pregnancy loss while life continues around them.
