The BBC have released a trailer for Paula Milne's epic new drama, White Heat, which charts the lives of seven friends from 1965 through to the present day.

Launching on BBC Two next month, the six-part series follows the group over almost five decades as their lives, loves and destinies are shaped by the political events of each era - from the death of Churchill, the union strife of the Seventies, the ascendancy of Thatcher, the Falklands, AIDS, the end of the Cold War to the present day.
