Can You Keep a Secret?

Paramount+ announced the new original comedy series, Can You Keep a Secret? will premiere on Thursday, February 12, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S.. The hit British series follows a domineering granny who fakes her husband's death for the insurance money - only for her family to discover that the biggest threat isn't the law, but her. All six episodes of the series will be available to stream at launch.

The series stars seven-time BAFTA® TV Awards nominee Dawn French (French & Saunders) as Debbie Fendon, Mark Heap (Friday Night Dinner) as William, Craig Roberts (Submarine) as Harold and Mandip Gill (Doctor Who) as Neha.

In Can You Keep a Secret?, domineering granny Debbie Fendon (French) - is a woman who will stop at nothing to protect her family – it's just the person they most need proteecting from is her. When her hermit-like husband, William, unexpectedly dies, she makes an outlandish decision that will put the family under more pressure than ever before. Because William isn't actually dead – he just got mistakenly declared it and has beeen living in the loft while they wait for the life insurance to pay out. This comes as a bit of a shock to their easily frazzled son, Harold, whose wife, Neha, works for the local police. Just as they come to terms with the baffling behavior of these geriatric toddlers, Debbie reveals another secret she's been keeping up her sleeve - and this one could bring the whole family down.
