Fresh Eggs

A black comedy with a deliciously twisted sense of humour, this six-part drama follows a couple's quest for "the good life" that goes wickedly awry. Penny (Chitham, Shortland Street, Outrageous Fortune) and Wade (Holloway, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Eagle vs Shark) crave a peaceful, picture-perfect existence. But when they make the move to the small town of Alberton they find themselves in the middle of something odd and slightly sinister. After a fatal accident, Penny and Wade find themselves face-to-face with some very bad eggs, who threaten not only their happiness, but their lives. Award-winning actress Danielle Cormack (Wentworth, Rake) stars as Lulu, an overstretched modern mother and career criminal who's married to Pig (Dave Fane, Sione's Wedding), a criminal psychopath. Acclaimed actor John Rhys Davies (The Lord of the Rings) plays Penny's boss, Cutter, a narcissistic crime author who finds himself at the centre of a real murder mystery.

Fresh Eggs is a black comedy with a deliciously twisted sense of humour. The six-part drama follows a couple's quest for "the good life" that goes wickedly awry. Penny and Wade are "Mr and Mrs white bread", who crave a peaceful, picture-perfect existence. But when they make the move from the city to the small town of Alberton they find themselves in the middle of something odd and slightly sinister. After a fatal accident, Penny and Wade find themselves face-to-face with some very unsavoury locals, who threaten not only their happiness, but their lives. While Fresh Eggs has a bold, off-kilter style with a Fargoesque sensibility, it never loses its' sense of humanity.
