Creator Sally Wainwright said the show's success was like 'gold dust'
The writer behind Happy Valley has spoken about creating the ‘complicated’ character of Catherine Cawood and how actor Sarah Lancashire expressed fears that the show wouldn’t resonate with audiences whilst working on the first season back in 2014.
When asked by presenter Martha Kearney if she had any idea the show would be so popular with viewers who took the character of Catherine to their hearts, Sally said: “When you first start writing a show, you hope they will and it’s kind of gold dust when it happens. Sally said the show is inspired by a documentary about drug abuse and alcoholism in Hebden Bridge from filmmaker Jez Lewis and takes its name from the double meaning of the ‘extraordinarily beautiful part of the world’ that has its own set of issues.
