Reckless

Wednesday, 8.30pm, SBS & NITV

Written by Kodie Bedford (Mystery Road, Return to Paradise) and Stuart Page (Total Control, Cleverman), this fabulous locally produced drama couldn’t be more quintessentially Fremantle.

From the great cinematography featuring the port city in all its glory, to the dropping of one-liners only locals would understand (Chicken Treat references — chef’s kiss!), it’s atmospheric in all the right ways as it tells the twisty-turny story of two siblings who try to cover up a hit-and-run.

Tasma Walton and Hunter Page-Lochard lead the cast of this darkly funny thriller as brother and sister June and Charlie, and they’re terrific, their flinty, sparring odd-couple dynamic driving the story forward.

There are also performances from West Aussies Clarence Ryan
