Joan

Behind the scenes of ITV's jewel thief drama Joan

Defined by shoulder pads, cut-crease eyeshadow, stone-washed denim and statement haircuts, the unmistakable 1980s aesthetic is a gift for television.

Turner (Game of Thrones) will star as Joan Hannington, a woman who catapults herself from penniless young mother to notorious jewel thief.
