Of course, taboos are hard to banish, but story telling like this is an important step in the right direction. Gold Digger is, then, a long-overdue conversation starter about the expectations we place on women and how we can collectively re-train ourselves to ditch them. We decide what someone means to us, what they give to and provide for us and we want them to stay there, perpetually frozen in that role and not have other avenues of their life explored," Julia added. "This story is beautifully revealing of how we pigeonhole people, how we write them off and how we close off certain aspects of their life because we see them as fitting a specific role. Ultimately, the series explains why a family has fractured and lies have been told but always retains the message that Julia is her own person and deserves the freedom to make choices that are right for her, despite spending a whole life devoted to others. One would think it should not be that inconceivable but at the same time something does feel off…" she added. Despite the fact that we’re very used to seeing older men with much younger women, to see the reverse throws into sharp relief our societal expectations of women. ![]() "So each episode unpacks this, looking at the preconceived ideas about how women should be with men. To Julia’s children there is a sense that Benjamin is a threat to their inheritance and a feeling that there is something off about him but it’s founded in this disbelief that he could genuinely love her," Julia Ormond explained. "What attracted me to the story is the way that it's provocative and it challenges us in terms of how we see women who have devoted their life to motherhood - then what do they do when that phase is sort of coming to an end. Struggling to accept the relationship, or the possibility of their mum existing outside of the world they've previously lived in, the children push against Julia and further strain their already damaged bond. As their romance blossoms, Julia and Benjamin are met with intense questioning from her three children Patrick (Sebastian Armesto), Della (Jemima Rooper) and Leo (Archie Renaux) who come to the conclusion Benjamin is after one thing - their mum's money. ![]()
