The Split is a British television legal drama series, written and created by Abi Morgan, that first broadcast in the United Kingdom on BBC One on 24 April 2018. The six-part series, commissioned in August 2016, follows the lives of the Defoe family, who all work in divorce law for the family firm, aside from eldest sister Hannah (Nicola Walker), who works for rival family law firm Noble & Hale. The series co-stars Stephen Mangan, Fiona Button, Annabel Scholey and Barry Atsma.
Production for the series began in July 2017 in London. On 13 January 2017, SundanceTV announced that it would be partnering with the BBC to produce the series. SundanceTV will thus hold exclusive rights for broadcast in the United States. The complete series was released on DVD on 4 June 2018.
