Ace Bhatti stars as a dutiful husband and loving father whose life falls apart when decades of festering secrets are exposed, and he’s forced to face up to who he really is. Presented in partnership with ITVX and with a stellar cast including Laila Rouass, Navin Chowdhry, Shaheen Khan and Mark Williams, The Effects of Lying is a delightfully chaotic comedic drama about a family trying to hold it together as their world begins to crumble.
