Trailer Drops for Channel 4s Falling Drama

has released its first look trailer for the Adolescence writer's new drama Falling - and it's a witty, moving love story that's not to be missed. 

Falling centres around a devoted nun () and a priest (Paapa Essidu) who fall in love and it's already being compared to the iconic series .  

The show's official synopsis reads: 'Anna, a devoted nun, and David, a Catholic priest, are both deeply committed to their work in the church and in their community. Neither are expected to fall in love. 

'But when they do, both are forced to wrestle with what it means for them, their vows, and their relationship with God.

'Falling is a witty, moving, contemporary romantic drama that is as honest as it is full of heart.' 

Falling has an all-star cast including Keeley Hawes and Paapa Essidu, who will step into the starring roles of Anna and David. 

The intriguing trailer begins with nun Anna being told that she has to attend to a visitor at her convent. 

But when she cooks for him, she accidentally burns her hand, and is soon helped to hold it under a cold tap by the handsome visitor - a moment when they exchange a very telling romantic glance.  

Keeley, 50, said that when she discovered that the show was written by Adolescence writer Jack Throne, participating was a 'no-brainer' - even before she had read the script.

She told Grazia: 'That was a no-brainer before I'd even read the script. 

'Unbelievably for someone who's so prolific, he'd never written a love story before. I thought the story was absolutely beautiful.'

She said it was also a 'freeing' experience to film a show entirely in a robe. 

The actress admitted: 'It felt a bit like a costume drama, partly because we were wearing robes.

'They were actually very freeing. It's quite a lovely thing to forget about anything to do with vanity. There's no vanity in [Sister] Anna.'
