The following day, Laura accuses Andrew of raping her and reports it to the police; after which Andrew is hauled in for questioning where he strenuously denies the allegations.
As news of Laura’s claims become public both Laura and Andrew’s families struggle to come to terms with the situation, while viewers are left wondering who’s really telling the truth.
Liar was created by brothers Harry and Jack Williams, who previously wrote BBC's The Missing and One Of Us.
