What is Witness Number 3 on Channel 5 about?
The show centres around Jodie Parker, a single mum and owner of a hairdressers in London.
One day, she happens to witness what seems like an innocent situation…
But she soon finds herself as the most significant witness in a murder enquiry.
Unfortunately, the murderer is a gang boss, and Jodie finds herself facing a campaign of intimidation.
What begins with a series of strange text messages and memes to her phones builds to greater danger.
Her ordeal intensifies as a local gangs threatens Jodie and her young son Kyle (Cole Martin), as well as trashing her flat.
Sue Johnston, who plays Jodie’s mum, tells us that “the script is different”.
