SERIES OVERVIEW

The Sheridans are back and about to face their biggest challenge yet –  a longheld family secret that blows up all their certainties. Will this shocking revelation upend already fragile relations for good, or could this be the missing piece that will finally fix this most dysfunctional of Irish families?

This season Shiv and the Sheridans are desperately trying to forge new lives, but change is harder than it looks. And as the pressure mounts, Shiv is not only starting to question her sobriety, she’s also having to face some hard truths. After all, there’s only so long she can blame her family, the bad men in her life and even the drink: what if the real problem is just… herself?
