3-part BBC thriller series 'The Replacement' has just landed on Netflix. The highly rated psychological drama stars Morven Christie as Ellen, a successful architect who is about to go on maternity leave. However things get sinister when she realises that her maternity cover, Paula (played by Vicky McLure), is not what she seems and Ellen becomes increasingly paranoid and fears she is being forced out.
The official synopsis reads "Paula wastes no time in moving in on Ellen's bosses, clients and friends, and Ellen fears she is being forced out. Everyone thinks Paula is great and Ellen is being paranoid, until a site accident puts Ellen's suspicions into overdrive...".
