What happens when two highly intelligent women, ready for anything, clash in the academic world? This is the question explored in the four-part mini-series "Cheat," whose creators are already behind series hits like "Liar" and "Fleabag." At the center of the story we find university professor Leah (Katherine Kelly), who seems to be involved in an academic fraud case with her student Rose (Molly Windsor). The relationship between the two spirals visibly out of control, with consequences as dramatic as those to be expected when two people are unconditionally willing to stand up for their respective convictions.

Created by newcomer Gaby Hull and directed by Louise Hooper ("Lucky Man), this gripping psychological thriller centers on the dangerous relationship between university professor Leah and her student Rose, which is likely to trigger fatal consequences.
