Gwydion Rhys plays Jamie, a psychiatric nurse, in what is his first leading role in a television drama.

Rhys explained that Jamie is the focus of the entire drama, and while the fast-paced filming was demanding, he used that energy to enhance his performance.

I think Jamie is a really complex guy – he’s definitely all over the place emotionally, but I’m hoping viewers will actually feel for him. Honestly, playing him was amazing, and I made a point of enjoying every single moment on set. It was a real privilege.

The central character is struggling to balance his responsibilities at home and work while also dealing with difficult experiences from his past. His new boss could be the final straw, pushing him beyond his limits.

The show features a talented cast including Hannah Daniel (known for Keeping Faith), Sara Gregory (Torchwood), Alex Harries (The Light in the Hall, Keeping Faith), Richard Elis (The Pact), and Arwel Gruffydd (Y Sŵn, Hedd Wyn).

Filmed in Bridgend and Pontypridd, the drama Creisis is made by the same team behind the BBC series Men Up. That series featured Iwan Rheon (known for Game of Thrones), Alexandra Roach (Lazarus), and Joanna Page (Gavin & Stacey).

All six episodes of Crisis are now available to stream on ITVX, featured in their “Fresh In” section – it might be the perfect show to watch this weekend.
