Escorted is a character-led contemporary drama set in a Yorkshire market town, exploring relationships, loneliness, and the hidden lives people lead.
Max Taylor is a decent, ordinary man facing financial collapse. When a chance encounter leads him into the world of paid companionship, he creates a discreet second life—offering trust and emotional connection to professional women who need support without judgement. However, this is equally the story of the women he meets—and the wife he risks losing. Each relationship brings a different dynamic—awkward, unexpectedly funny, or deeply revealing—as Max becomes increasingly drawn into their lives.
As boundaries blur, his own life begins to fracture. Secrets build, loyalties shift, and the cost of maintaining two identities becomes impossible to contain.
Blending the warmth of Last Tango in Halifax with the emotional tension of Doctor Foster, the series is grounded, relatable, and emotionally truthful, with humour emerging naturally from character and situation.
