STICKS & STONES
The three-part psychological drama is focused on the competitive world of middle management. Set in a business park in Reading, Sticks and Stones centres on the personal and professional life of Thomas Benson; a hard-working father and husband. Reliant on bonuses and winning pitches, Benson often finds himself leading the team when trying to win new business. When he freezes during a pitch the fall out is monumental.
Determined to win back the client Thomas goes to increasingly desperate lengths to remain successful. But as he does, he begins to feel undermined, under attack and out of control. Has he lost his confidence and just feeling paranoid or is his own team, and maybe the wider world, now out to get him?
Sticks and Stones is a Tall Story Pictures production for ITV and is produced by Colin Wratten (The Witness for the Prosecution, Killing Eve). Catherine Oldfield (Trauma, Tutankhamun) executive produces the new series alongside writer and creator Mike Bartlett.
