What to expect in Boiling Point?

“Eight months after her mentor Andy Jones suffered a heart attack, head chef Carly is battling to forge a name for new London restaurant Point North alongside her old kitchen crew,” reads the synopsis. “With the pressure to draw in new, hungry customers and the financial squeeze to keep the business profitable, the team must find a way to manage their complicated personal lives whilst creating quality food day in, day out.”

The Boiling Point is written and executive produced by James Cummings, with Philip Barantini serving as the director. The series is a spin-off sequel of the Barantini’s 2021 movie of the same name, which earned Graham as BAFTA nomination for Best Actor in a Leading Role.

In addition to Robinson and Graham, the series also stars Ray Panthaki as Freeman, Hannah Walters as Emily, Izuka Hoyle as Camille, Cathy Tyson as Vivian, and Stephen Odubola as Johnny Bale. Executive producers are Graham, Barantini, Walters, Hester Ruoff, and Bart Ruspoli, with Graham Drover producing.
