It's the show that's being dubbed Britain's answer to Big Little Lies. 

And Anna Friel, 43, certainly gave viewers something to talk about as she enjoyed a saucy romp with a married man in the premiere episode of Deep Water on Wednesday night. 

The scene saw her character, Lisa Kallis, in the midst of a steamy liaison with Adam (played by Steve Toussaint) in a bathroom during a dinner party - only for her to cut the steamy act short after being spotted by a mystery person. 

Friel-ing frisky! Anna Friel, 43, certainly gave viewers something to talk about as she enjoyed a saucy romp with a married man in the premiere episode of Deep Water on Wednesday

After being spotted, Anna proved to be in such a hurry that she leaves her knickers on the floor while fleeing the bathroom. 

The scene prompted a huge response from fans who questioned how realistic the scenario was, while others expressed concern over her forgotten pair of knickers. 

They rushed to Twitter to express the following thoughts:   

'Nothing about this is remotely like anything in the real world that I live in.. Who would leave the bathroom door open? Who'd forget her knickers. Who'd be so easy seduced? Who'd be smiling as a boy is pulled out water after nearly drowning. I could go on #DeepWater'

The series explores the intertwining lives of three mothers with children around the same age, and for Anna – who has a 14-year-old daughter Gracie by Harry Potter actor David Thewlis – the drama hit close to home.

‘The last line of episode one is, “Just what kind of mother are you?”, and of course I found myself asking myself that very question,’ Anna recently told Daily Mail's Weekend Magazine.  

‘The answer is that, like most mums, I do my best but it’s not easy. Life, for most of us, is not tied up with a bow.

'While making Deep Water I thought I’d be getting back to Gracie at home in Windsor every other weekend – a six-and-a-half-hour commute from the Lake District – but during the entire four and a half months of the shoot I only got back there for a single week.

'Life goes so quickly and you run the risk of missing out on so much if you’re not around your children.’
