Sidelined

Writer Alice is about to get her first big TV break, until a colleague confides in her, and she's caught in the middle of a scandal. Whose side is she on?

By Kirsty Smith

Alice, an up-and-coming scriptwriter, has written a TV film she's proud of and it's being directed by big-shot director Carl Bunton. It's a huge deal for her and everything is going great. Until a work night out, when Alice's colleague Sita, finds herself alone with Carl. The fall out tests Alice to her very core. But Alice has a secret of her own, and she's determined that no-one will sideline her this time.
