First look at Rebecca Hall in new BBC drama The Listeners alongside The Crown, Corrie and Peaky Blinders stars
THE BBC have given a first look at Rebecca Hall in their brand new drama The Listeners.
Bosses previously revealed the show will kick off on November 19th and now they've dropped a trailer.
It gives a flavour of what fans can expect as Rebecca's character Claire, a school teacher, begins to hear a low humming in her ears.
Nobody else can hear the noise, which starts becoming disruptive to her professional and private life.
The Beeb tease: "This seemingly innocuous noise gradually upsets the balance of her life, increasing tension between herself and her husband, Paul, and daughter, Ashley - and despite multiple doctors, no obvious source or medical cause can be found.
"When a student of hers, Kyle, claims he can also hear the sound, the two strike up an unlikely and intimate friendship."
